An Evening with Wendy Holden and Eva Clarke
Bestselling author Wendy Holden joined us to discuss her poignant and incredibly moving book Born Survivors. The book tells an inspirational story of resilience and maternal courage, as three pregnant women fight for survival in concentration camps during the Holocaust.
Wendy was joined by Eva Clarke BEM, one of the babies born under these harrowing circumstances, who shared the particular context surrounding her family’s struggle for survival, and her own personal experiences of growing up in the aftermath of the Holocaust.
The event was hosted by author and Producer of the Radio 2 Book Club Joe Haddow – who facilitated a fascinating Q&A session with the speakers and audience.
