This Yom Ha’ Shoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day)
and on the 100th anniversary of his birth, we are
honoring the life and work of Italian author and
Holocaust survivor, Primo Levi. The evening will
feature readings and discussion of the author's
work.
The program will include readings of some of Levi’s
most famous passages by Kirsten Wynne Pullen
