Book Description
This is the author's account of what befell him when the Nazis invaded Lithuania and war engulfed Europe. Intense and compelling, Ganor describes in detail his years in the Kaunas ghetto and in Nazi death camps. The tale also includes the remarkable story of the Japanese ambassador Sugihara (often called the Japanese Schindler), who, in defiance of his Foreign Ministry, began writing transit visas for thousands of Jews to flee Lithuania and the Nazis. "Light One Candle" describes Ganor's daily battles with terror; it is often his wits that keep him alive, at other times it is a simple twist of fate. The startling conclusion tells of his rescue from the snow at Dachau by a Japanese-American soldier.
