Bruno Schulz was another brilliant writer killed by the Nazi regime. It makes me angry how many wonderful books we missed because of the Holocaust and not only. Bruno Schulz only managed to leave us only a collection of short stories, but of a high value. I only read the The Street of Crocodiles but I appreciated it enough to buy a newly published translation of his works in Romanian. Unfortunately, I do not remember anything about this story read 4 months ago. I only vaguely remember the feeling of strangeness that I had while reading.

C.  (Comment, never msg). A holocaust surviver, Dr. Stefan Carter, wrote a great book I reviewed two years ago: "From Warsaw To Winnipeg, A Tale Of Two Cities". He had a very good life. He embraced alternative eastern healing along with his medical expertise and just went to Heaven at 96 years-old in our home city, Winnipeg! I feel like the survivors were given a very long time to live, thankfully. Happy Canada Day today! ~Carolyn~.
