I finished reading The Watchmaker's Daughter: A Memoir by Sonia Taitz last night. What a wonderful book. Taitz is the daughter of two Holocaust survivors, Simon and Gita, Jews from Lithuania, who met in New York at a Survivors Ball after the war. They married and had two children, Emanuel (Manny) and Sonia.
Simon stayed alive at Dachua by repairing watches for the Nazis, "who loved punctuality." Gita was about to debut as a concert pianist before the war started.
Read my Squidoo article to find out more about this fascinating tale and the book that is worth reading.
