Michael Frank, ONE HUNDRED SATURDAYS: Stella Levi and the Search for a Lost World

Zibby is joined by Michael Frank who returns to discuss his latest book, One Hundred Saturdays: Stella Levi and the Search for a Lost World. Michael shares how the conversations he had with Stella over the last six years were never meant to be a book but evolved as he wanted to share her story as a Holocaust survivor and the history of her homeland with the world. The two also talk about how Stella largely survived Auschwitz due to sheer luck and her incredible will, as well as what it was like for Michael to experience the island of Rhodes through Stella's eyes. Morning Moon Productions, led by Zibby's husband Kyle, just optioned Michael's novel, What Is Missing. Read more about the big news here!
