Greetings friends! Today we're most stoked to welcome Chris Bock, author of An Ordinary Man: From Vienna to Japan and Back During World War II.
The book is an epic true story of a Jewish gay man’s extraordinary life, from escaping Nazi oppression in Austria – saving his family via a winning lottery ticket – to finding refuge of sorts in Japan before finally settling down to a quiet life back in Vienna after the war. Paul Patek witnessed some of the 20th century’s most traumatic events with an unfailing optimism and spirit.
