Voices in the Wind

by Bruce Benson

Overview
Whispers is a unique telling of one man's coming to terms with the Holocaust- a detailed account of both his physical and emotional journey through the camps." A riveting read". Neil Naft "You captivated me with your experience so brilliantly described. Your description of the camps and surrounding areas were brought to life for me. The idea of murdered souls as Whisperers was spot on." Joanne Mauck "Tears flowed as I read the story of the scene at JFK customs followed by walking with a Holocaust Torah side by side with Elie Wiesel. These stories are two perfect bookend stories about two scroll-survivors finally finding rest. David M. Ehrmann "This disturbing and enlightening work is far more scream than whisper... and ever so timely barely 85 years later. A critical reminder of a history we must never ever repeat".
