"Visas for Life: The Sugihara Story."
Chiune Sugihara was the Japanese
consul in Kovno, Lithuania, during
World War II. He issued visas to
6,000 Jews, who were then able to
escape the Nazis, fleeing from Poland
into Lithuania in 1940. As a result,
Sugihara was called back to Japan, and
dismissed from
his diplomatic
duties.
Not much
was said or writ-
ten about
Sugihara's con-
tribution to sav-
ing Jews from
Nazi slaughter
until after

Schindler's List

captured the
popular imagi-
nation. In fact,
Sugihara saved
more lives than
Schindler.
The
Museum/Gallery
is planning a
major event for the October opening
of "Visas for Life," including the par-
ticipation of either Chiune Sugihara's
widow or son.
From the 6,000 Jews who were able
to flee thanks to Sugihara's help, there
are now some 40,000 descendants
alive. The Museum/Gallery is looking
for Detroit-area residents who are
among those descendants to join in the
program.
If you are a "Sugihara descendant"
and wish to participate in the opening
program, contact curator Sylvia
Nelson at (248) 661-7641.

Between The Pages

Here's a recipe for a good read.
Take Mel Brooks' 2,000-Year-Old
Man, add a touch of Sherlock
Holmes, a pinch of Marc Chagall and
just a dash of the movie Cocoon. The
result is the paperback novel The
Sword of Goliath (Coteau Books;
$7.95) by Martin S. Cohen.
The book is a delightful com-
pilation of Jewish fable, comedy,
tragedy, mystery and history.
Cohen provides the reader with
an exceptional journey that vis-
its the streets of New York and
Prague and involves kabbalistic
lore and Yiddishkeit in a way
that not only maintains interest
but also manages to impart a
sense of rediscovery.
Mikey Prager and his part-
ner, Fred Finkelman, sell deco-
rated ice cream-cake tomb-
stones. When a request comes
to supply the goodies for a
party at the Czech embassy,
Mikey meets Otokar Zidek,
learns of the Sword of Goliath
and the adventure begins.
Cohen cleverly weaves in several his-
torical figures and biblical passages with
interpretations that lend themselves well
to moving the mystery forward. Just
when he has the reader convinced that
the latest story development — involv-
ing even the dybbuk — can be
believed, a new aspect is introduced to
peak interest and urge the reader on.
Cohen, with his easy manner,
blends fable and fantasy, Bible and
bubbe-meiseh and makes this a well-
written and fun read.
