Book Description: In 1939 the Polish town of Konin vanished in the wake of Nazi occupation. Twenty five years later, Theo Richmond set out to find what he could about that vanished world. He traveled across the United States, Europe, and Israel, tracing survivors and sifting through archives and the stories of those he interviewed. A project he thought would take six months took seven years. Finally he confronted the Konin of today. Interweaving past and present, Konin tells the story of one community how it began, how it flourished, and how it ended and in the process re creates the precariousness, anguish and necessity of human memory. 'A fascinating memorial to a lost community and the people who lived there.' The New York Times Book Review 'One reads it sometimes with a smile...always on the edge of tears as if it were the most gripping adventure story.' Elie Wiesel, New York Newsday
