The book, THE OXYMORON FACTOR, is a memoir. It consists of four parts: 1. FRANEK; 2. THE TALE OF THE RING: a KADDISH; 3. GIOVANNA of the CHESTNUT; 4. THE WINDING TRAIL TO THE HOUSE OF MARGIE. It tells of the harrowing years of Jewish life in Poland during the 20 years between World War I and World War II; of the extermination of 90% of the Jewish population of Europe during the Holocaust; of the redemption by Love; and of rebuilding a new life, from scratch, in New York City. Most importantly, it tells about the need of a victim to forgive his hangman, in order to be able to become, once more, an ordinary member of civilized society.
