A Teacher of the Holocaust

A man watches helplessly as his brother attempts to alter his life by purchasing "amulets that are supposed to hasten a good time;" a college professor listens as a Holocaust survivor tells him about "dozens of Nazi war criminals living and working in Manhattan;" a sculptor labors in clay and bronze in an effort to recapture "the pleasure he had in creating something that didn't exist before." These are among the characters-in search of truth and love and dignity-who inhabit Milton Teichman's beautiful collection, A Teacher of the Holocaust. A natural storyteller with a startling ear for dialogue, Teichman's stories will amaze readers with their compassion, their insight, and their down-to-earth wisdom.
