Autor

Born in 1929 in Lithuania, Yochanan Fein was just a boy when he was forced into the Kaunus Ghetto and his parents were taken from him. After surviving three years of peril at the hands of the Nazis, Yochanan was approached by a stranger with a miraculous claim: that as a violin prodigy, he was chosen to be saved. Following liberation, Yochanan fled Soviet Lithuania in secrecy. He immigrated to Israel in 1950, where he joined the Kibbutz movement and married his late wife, Nurit. Yochanan lives in Holon, Israel and has two children and six grandchildren.
