AS I REMEMBER...

My youngest brother asked me to help him remember.He had no one else to ask.So begins this extraordinary memoir, handwritten by Maria Gluck at the age of 93 and completed - by herself using IBM’s ViaVoice dictation software - at 97.What started as a few memories for her brother became a sweeping portrait of a lost world: the vibrant Jewish communities of prewar Czechoslovakia and Hungary, the rising tide of antisemitism, and the struggle to build a new life in America.As I Remember... is both intimate and epic - raw, unflinching, and fiercely personal. Told with warmth, clarity, and quiet strength, it preserves not only what was lost, but what was saved.The memoir is followed by a collection of short stories, reflections, and essays written into her 97th year - final testaments of love, resilience, and moral clarity.This is not just a memoir. It is a voice carried across generations - a story written and spoken so it would never be forgotten.
