5.0 out of 5 stars Compelling glimpse of the Shanghai Ghetto, March 12, 2008
This review is from: Shanghai Refuge: A Memoir of the World War II Jewish Ghetto (Paperback)
The refuge Heppner evokes in vivid color is of war-time Shanghai: the one place Jews could escape Hitler without a visa. From harassment and worse in Germany, he and his family find squalor, hardship, and hunger...but also hope, inspiration and, ultimately, safety. A little-known chapter of the Nazi era.

4.0 out of 5 stars As if i was there, December 14, 2011

This review is from: Shanghai Refuge: A Memoir of the World War II Jewish Ghetto (Paperback)
My father spent 8 years in Shanghi under similiar circumstances as the author. As my father has passed away and could not share about his experiences, this is the closest i could get to any detailed experience. I visited Shanghai and found a very well preserved Jewish ghetto and even the house he used to live on Chusan street. There is an excellent Jewish tour available there. More pictures would have gotten five stars.
