Sinossi
Born into a middle-class doctor's family, Ruth Lilienstein was raised in Hamburg, studied law, and found herself drawn toward the ideals of the Communist Party. When Hitler came to power she had to flee because of her political activism, not because she was Jewish. She settled in Holland, where she worked for the Swiss consul, continuing vital work helping many refugees getting out of Europe, fix their passports, and hide their families. After the war, she returned to Hamburg and with her husband started one of the most respected literary agencies in the world. A story of a life of commitment, idealism, and courage, Maybe Luck Isn't Just Chance is a compelling and engrossing tale.

Hardcover. Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. vii, [1], 125, [3] p. Jewish Lives series. Footnotes. With a Historical Postscript by Inge Marssolek. Translated from a WIkipedia posting: "Ruth Liepman (1909-2001) grew up as the daughter of a Jewish doctor family in Hamburg and studied law. As a communist, she received in 1933 disbarment. In 1934, she was charged with treason and fled into exile in Holland, where she was involved in politics until she went into hiding in 1943. After the war she returned to Hamburg, married and founded the first literary agency in postwar Germany. In 1961 she moved to Zurich, where the prestigious agency Liepman to this day has its headquarters." Very good. No dust jacket. Minor sticker residue at back cover. Presumed first U.S. English Language edition/first printing. Codice articolo 69742
