General Notes: Husband - Yoel Sheridan

Dear Robert

I was pleased that we were able to converse verbally today.
As the line was not absolutely clear, I am writing to confirm that det ails of my book "From Here to Obscurity" can be found on www.tenterboo ks.com
Because of Mickey Mishne's untimely demise, my book is now available t hrough
Henry Hollander, Bookseller, 843 Twenty-Fourth Avenue, San Francisco , CA 94121
http://www.hollanderbooks.com - Tel: 415-831-3228 - Fax 415-831-3226

The cover copy describes the book as follows
"From Here to Obscurity tells the story of the now lost Jewish East En d of London through the eyes of Shulem, an immigrant from Poland, hi s wife Rivka, and Yulus, their English born youngest son. It takes u s through the turbulent years in London from 1933 to 1945, through pov erty, fascist incursions, evacuation and targeted war-time
bombings by Hitler's luftwaffe that destroyed the infrastructure of th is one time thriving East London Yiddish-speaking community, forcing i ts ultimate dispersion. Shulem's relatives are lost in the Holocaust a nd many of Yulus's friends are killed by the last German V-2 rocket t o fall on London. Despite all this trauma, 'From Here to Obscurity' i s an uplifting tale of human warmth, humor and solidarity in the mids t of overwhelming global forces."

Paperbound. ISBN 0-9540811-0-2. Price $24.00
You will see from the www.tenterbooks.com web site that the book has r eceived excellent international reviews including the American Associ ation of Jewish Libraries and the Cleveland Jewish News.

I hope this will help you in distributing information about the book t o the Tachna extended family. Please let me have a copy of what you se nd. Thanks.

Be well, keep well and keep in touch.

Shalom and best wishes to you and yours.

Yoel
