Until Our Last Breath
Michael Bart
"A powerful tale of the triumph of love under extremely difficult conditions," tells the story of a married couple who were part of the Jewish Resistance (Publishers Weekly).
At his father's funeral, one of the mourners told Michael Bart that the gravestone should include a reference to the Freedom Fighters of Nekamah, to honor Leizer Bart's involvement in the Jewish resistance movement in Vilna (now Vilnius), Lithuania, at the end of World War II. Michael had never heard his parents referenced as Freedom Fighters.
Michael embarked on a ten-year research project to find out more details about his parents' time in the Vilna ghetto, where they met, fell in love, and married, and about their activities as members of the Jewish resistance. Until Our Last Breath is the culmination of his research, and his parents' story of love and survival.
