Join us for Ester Benjamin Shifren’s presentation (replete with photographs) that will introduce us to the world of the Sephardic community in Shanghai before WWII. Ester‘s book, Hiding in a Cave of Trunks: A Prominent Jewish Family’s Century in Shanghai and internment in a WWII POW Camp, covers all aspects of her family’s century-long sojourn in China and details the culture and tribulations of the colorful multi-ethnic groups who lived in Shanghai, the “Paris of the East”.
The book is available in softcover and for Kindle. Questions? Please contact Roslyn Sholin (rosholin@sonic.net) or Flaurie S. Imberman (flauriei@gmail.com).
