Border Crossings: Coming of Age in the Czech Resistance
A real life adventure
Librarian-publisher Sandra Novacek will present an illustrated book talk about the award-winning memoir, "Border Crossings: Coming of Age in the Czech Resistance". It is a true story written by her late husband Charles Novacek. Endorsed by Madeleine Albright, the book describes the impact of World War II and the Cold War on a Czechoslovakian teen (Charles) who participated in the Czech Resistance against the Nazis and the communists. After escaping his homeland, Novacek fled to Germany, then Venezuela and finally immigrated to the U.S. Participants may purchase the book in advance or obtain it at the class if desired.
