A live reading of poignant letters written during the Holocaust. Many of these letters were the last ones ever penned by their authors.

From the Sydney Jewish Museum’s collection, these deeply moving letters will be read by survivors who were the recipients, or family members who either wrote or received them.

Geraldine Doogue will introduce the event, which is a part of the Sydney Writers' Festival.
