In 2021-2022, we released an Italian-language edition of Six Thousand Miles to Home, translated by Francesca Degani and a Polish-language edition, translated by Karolina Klermon-Williams.

In 2020 we released an audiobook version of Six Thousand Miles to Home: A Novel Inspired by a True Story of WW II, narrated by Juliet Stevenson and Un Largo Camino a Casa, a Spanish-language edition of Six Thousand Miles to Home, translated by Penelope Johnson. 

From 2018 to 2019, the Suzanna Cohen Legacy Foundation has co-sponsored and participated in events at the Harmonie Club, Temple Israel, Brownstone, Fordham University, and the Jewish Book Council in Manhattan; Temple Beth-El and Congregation Emanu-El in Westchester; and the Museo Ebraico Carlo e Vera Wagner in Trieste, Italy.

Watch the video below to meet the Eisners, a Jewish family from western Poland whose four children lived through World War I and survived World War II and whose descendants reunited in September 2019 in Trieste, Italy. Narrated by author Kim Dana Kupperman; produced by Philip Warner.

Upcoming projects include:

In Search of the Baker’s Children, a nonfiction work about four Jewish siblings (including Josephine, featured in Six Thousand Miles to Home) born in present-day Poland, who survived both World Wars. The video on this page introduces the four Eisner children.

For the first time in English, a collection of testimonies by Jews from Poland who were deported during WW II to forced-labor camps in the Soviet Union and then made their way to Palestine.
