They Called Her Cassandra: A Story of Survival

They Called Her Cassandra: A Story of Survival 
Fred Bergmann is a promising young surgeon. His wife Ruth has great intuition and plenty of ‘chutzpah’! They have their whole lives in front of them and a young family to love and cherish. Yet history has other plans. The year is 1933. The setting – Leipzig, Germany. Hitler has just come to power and National Socialist fervour is rife. Fred, the optimist, believes the danger will moderate. But Ruth sees the writing on the wall. As t he German nation hurtles towards war and the systematic persecution of Jews becomes endemic, she knows they must act. Or die! Told by Ruth and Fred’s daughter, They Called Her Cassandra is a powerful and compelling family history, which provides an intimate insight into one of the pivotal moments in world history. As well as showing the plight of one family, this remarkable account also sheds light on post-war Britain from a refugee perspective. Above all, this is a book about love and endurance.
