Czernowitzers...
Earlier this month I had the privilege to be hosted by List member Prof. Ossi Horovitz in his hometown of Cluj-Napoca. We had the opportunity to schedule the release of the June 2017 "Book of the Month", i. e. "Stimmen der Nacht" [Voices of the Night]:

Ossi Horovitz wrote in June 2015 to me: "Thank you for your visit in Bershad, and for your contribution to not let this place to be forgotten.

This is the place were my grand parents, all from Czernowitz, perished. The parents of my father, Yerma and Zirl Horowitz and the parents of my mother, Osias and Zipora (Cilly) Pomeranz, died during the first winter (1941-1942). My parents, Bernhard and Laura Horowitz and my mother’s sister, Edith (Dita) Pomeranz survived, but Dita died afterwards, after long severe sufferings, caused by the years in Bershad. After the death of my parents, I found the poems in German, which they had written in Bershad. Some of them where published in a little volume "Stimmen der Nacht", Hartung-Gorre Verlag Konstanz, 2000."
Thank you, dear Ossi, for sharing these touching memories with all of us, and additionally for your hospitality in Cluj-Napoca!
