A book launch will be held at York today for Johanna Krause, Twice Persecuted: Surviving in Nazi Germany and Communist East Germany<\/em>. Berlin-based translators Carolyn Gammon and Christiane Hemker will attend to introduce the book, which is part of the Life Writing Series from Wilfrid Laurier University Press.

\n\"\" 
\nPersecuted as a Jew, both under the Nazis and in post-war East Germany, Dresden-born Johanna Krause (1907­-2001) courageously fought her way through life with searing humour and indomitable strength of character. Johanna Krause, Twice Persecuted<\/em> is her story, the result of a collaboration with Gammon and Hemker. See more about the book here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The launch will be held at 3pm today in York Lanes Room 230R on the Keele campus. A short film about Krause will also be shown.<\/p>\n

The event is sponsored by the Canadian Centre for German & European Studies at York and York's Centre for Feminist Research.
