Starlings at Treblinka

Murmuration of Starlings captured on video near my New Jersey home

My great-grandparents, Sali and Ignaz Winkler, were murdered at Treblinka in 1942. The dates of their deaths on a major Jewish holiday, the lessons of a Bible story, and a bird of lore, all help me understand their experience and my place in the world. I invite you to read this excerpt, a chapter from a draft of my book. This passage is called, Starlings At Treblinka, the link is below.
