The extraordinary tale of Oskar Schindler, the Aryan who saved hundredsof Jews in Nazi-occupied Poland, is now legendary, but as Tom Keneallyreveals in this absorbing memoir, luck and the dogged persistence of oneof 'Schindler's Jews' were vital in bringing it to the world's attentionthrough his Booker Prize-winning novel, SCHINDLER'S ARK and the subsequentfilm, SCHINDLER'S LIST. Entertaining, inspiring and filled with anecdotesabout the many people involved, from the survivors Keneally interview..ed toSteven Spielberg and Liam Neeson, Searching for Schindler gives a revealinginsight into a writer's mind and the creation of a modern classic. It alsotraces what happened in the decades after the war to Schindler, his wife,and the people they rescued -- including Leopold Pfefferberg, who made ithis mission to repay his priceless debt to Schindler. Above all, it shedsrenewed light on a fascinatingly flawed man, and an instance ofexceptional humanity amid the greatest inhumanity mankind has known.'Keneally is incapable of writing a dull book. This memoir, listed as his38th publication, is no exception' Andrew Riemer, SYDNEY MORNING HERALD
