Last Train to Istanbul
« on: July 19, 2011, 09:07:05 AM »
Just read this book, written by Ayse Kulin, about Turkish and non Turkish Jews fleeing Nazi persecution in France during the Second World War. Fiction, but based on facts given by a number of Turkish diplomats who were posted to Europe during the Second World War and who succeeded in saving many Turkish and non Turkish Jews. Also relates about a young Turkish man who was a member of the French Resistance movement.originally written in Turkish but translated, published by Everest publications in Istanbul, www.everestyayinlari.com. Very interesting book.
