Synopsis
As ten-year-old Pinchas is deported from the Warsaw ghetto to the killing site of Majdanek and then to a series of concentration camps, he shuts himself off to the terrors surrounding him and tries his best not to be noticed, to become almost invisible. But after liberation, his photographic memory won't let his past fade away, and Pinchas struggles to deal with nightmares and flashbacks while trying to raise a family and heal his emotional scars.
Memories in Focus vividly retells Pinchas's painful journey, describing the separation from his parents and twin sister, his struggle to stay alive under the cruellest of circumstances and the luck and moments of kindness that enabled him to survive.

About the Author
Born in Lodz, Poland, on July 21, 1932, Pinchas Gutter was the only member of his immediate family to survive the Holocaust. In 1945, he was liberated and taken to Britain with other children orphaned by the war. Pinchas lived in France, Israel, Brazil and South Africa before immigrating to Canada in 1985. Since arriving in Canada, Pinchas has dedicated his spare time to caring for the aged, helping the disadvantaged and educating students and adults on the Holocaust. He is the first Holocaust survivor to have his storytelling and his likeness immortalized in an interactive three-dimensional projection in the USC Shoah Foundation?s New Dimensions in Testimony. Pinchas Gutter lives in Toronto.
