Book club meets Tuesday
An international bestseller by author
Heather Morris is the topic of the
upcoming Bookminders, the Hermis-
ton Public Library book club.
Participants will discuss “The Tat-
tooist of Auschwitz” Tuesday, Nov.
13, at 1:30 p.m. at The Pheasant Bar &
Grill, 149 E. Main St., Hermiston. The
club meeting is free and people may
arrive early for a no-host lunch.
The book shares a tale of hope and
courage. It’s based on interviews con-
ducted with Holocaust survivor and
Auschwitz-Birkenau tattooist Ludwig
(Lale) Sokolov. In April 1942, Sokolov,
a Slovakian Jew, was transported to the
concentration camps. When his captors
discovered that he spoke several lan-
guages, he was put to work as a tattoo-
ist, tasked with permanently marking
his fellow prisoners.
The book club, which is free and
open to everyone, meets the second
Tuesday of each month. A limited num-
ber of copies of “The Tattooist of Aus-
chwitz” are available at the library. For
more information, call 541-567-2882
or stop by the library at 235 E. Gladys
Ave.
