SUMMARY:Book Talk: A Blessing Not a Burden with author Dr. Alex Kor
DESCRIPTION:In an era where anti­semitism is on the rise\, A Bless­ing Not a Bur­den takes the read­er back to one of the most hor­rif­ic peri­ods in human his­to­ry. By chron­i­cling the lives of his 2 par­ents who nar­row­ly escaped death dur­ing the Holo­caust\, this book is also a reminder that the human spir­it can over­come even the dark­est of cir­cum­stances. \nSome would argue that Dr. Alex Kor’s life has been a mir­a­cle. Alex grew up in Indi­ana — a state with Mid­west­ern charm and an igno­min­ious his­to­ry of prej­u­dice. In A Bless­ing Not a Bur­den\, Alex details his incred­i­ble life jour­ney\, from his unique upbring­ing to his present-day mis­sion of car­ry­ing on his par­ents’ inspir­ing lega­cy. From his mother’s exam­ple of for­give­ness to his father’s unbri­dled opti­mism\, Alex shares life lessons that helped him over­come his own hard­ships includ­ing his bat­tle with can­cer in his 20s. He’s trav­eled a long and wind­ing road\, from Terre Haute\, Indi­ana to Auschwitz and many places in between\, and like his par­ents\, he has endured…and survived. \nThis program is held in partnership with the Jewish Federation of Greater Naples. \n  \nClick Here to RSVP
