What would it have been like to live in early Nazi Germany? Or, be a student at that time?  How could the Holocaust have happened? Even though you learned about the Holocaust in school, do you still want to know more?

If so, join the Holocaust Museum Houston members-only book club as we read the novel “Something Remains,” by Inge Barth-Grözinger. There will be two separate book clubs:  one for youth in grades 6 through 10 and one for adults. These newly-formed groups will allow for a close reading of this novel and allow participants to apply historical fiction to deepen and enrich an understanding of how the Holocaust occurred, learn about one individual’s experience and one town’s experiences during the early years of the Nazi period and analyze the complexity of the events of the early parts of the Holocaust and individual reactions to those events.

The clubs will meet three times – all on Thursday evenings, 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. – on March 10, April 14 and April 28. The book clubs are only open to members and their school-age children.

Space is limited for the book clubs and registration must be completed by Feb. 28, 2011. Registration is open on a first-come, first-served basis. The cost for the book club is $10 per person, which includes a copy of the book.
