Cynthia Flash Hemphill Book Signing on Saturday, April 16
“A Hug From Afar”
One Family’s Dramatic Journey Through Three Continents To Escape The Holocaust
From the young age of 9 on the Aegean island of Rhodes, Clara Barkey started writing to her uncle Ralph and aunty Rachel Capeluto in the far-away place known as Seattle, Wash. But what started as friendly letters quickly turned to desperate pleas for help as life for the Jews of Rhodes deteriorated under the control of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. Forgotten and never thought of again, Clara’s letters turned up more than 60 years after they were written. Seattle-area journalist and publicist Cynthia Flash Hemphill has edited and compiled “A Hug From Afar” based on the letters written by her mother Clara Barkey from 1930 to 1946.
Come meet Cynthia, learn more about this amazing, true-life tale of a family’s desperation and hope, and have her sign a copy for you.
