Robert Wolf, author, speaker, and media personality releases his new book “Not a Real Enemy: The True Story of a Hungarian Jewish Man’s Fight for Freedom.” The book details the remarkable story of his family’s history that follows his Jewish parents and grandparents first living under the Nazis, and then under the communist regime in Hungary. It explores the depths of his family, shares their experiences, and his father Ervin Wolf’s quest for freedom. This insightful and deeply-felt book is riveting, compelling, and inspiring. This is one of the best and most anticipated books that will become your favorite book of 2022 and beyond.

In 1944, almost half a million Jewish Hungarians are deported to Auschwitz. Among the few surviving Hungarian Jews from this era were young men who, like Ervin Wolf, were conscripted into the brutal Forced Labor Service where they were cut off from the outside world and ordered to endure inhumane brutalities and servitude. Once freed, a new oppression took hold as communist rule under Stalin turned friends to foes, enveloped the nation in fear and suspicion, and tested everyone’s character and strength.

This is the true story of Ervin Wolf and his family as the fascist tide of Eastern Europe takes hold of Hungary. From the Wolfs’ comfortable upper-class life to imprisonment, daring escapes, tragic deaths, cloak-and-dagger adventures, and Ervin’s final escape to freedom in the dead of night, “Not a Real Enemy” is a page-turning tale of suspense, tragedy, comedy, and ultimately, triumph.

“Not a Real Enemy: The True Story of a Hungarian Jewish Man’s Fight for Freedom” is available at retailers and online including at Barnes & Noble and at Amazon:

About Robert Wolf

Robert Wolf, M.D., grew up as the only child of Ervin and Judit Wolf. Their stories of their escape from communist Hungary, and his father’s tragic history of escaping the Nazis twice but having his own parents deported to Auschwitz, inspired Robert to document his parents’ tales and share those stories with Jewish groups and others throughout the United States. In “Not a Real Enemy” Robert shares his family saga-and the forgotten history of the nearly half million Hungarian Jews who were deported and killed during the Holocaust-through an epic and inspiring tale of daring escapes, terrifying oppression, tragedy, and triumph.

Recent release “Tucker’s Angels” from Page Publishing author Jim Reedy follows a student who believes he has landed in heaven on Earth: dorm mates with whom to fraternize, coeds just across the quad, three squares a day in the dining hall, and a new gymnasium open into the night.

Jim Reedy, a retired educator who served as a college and university professor/administrator for almost forty years, has completed his new book “Tucker’s Angels”: a gripping and potent novel that introduces Tucker McKay, whose story is one of discovery and transformation, until playing basketball may not be the most important thing to be experienced in the Halls of Ivy. His journey is also about the many (earthly) angels in disguise who help lead him toward enlightenment, including an equally competitive coed who ties him in such emotional knots that he once again must rethink his priorities. She turns Tuck’s academic awakening into an adventure, flavored with the mysteries of romance, the excitement of first love, and the thrill of passion.

Author Jim Reedy was born and educated in Virginia and currently resides in Atlanta, Georgia. This is his second book, the first being about life in the remote mountains of Appalachia during the Depression and titled “Blue Fog Mountain,” also largely a work of fiction.

Jim writes, “Tucker McKay guessed that almost everyone had a favorite retreat of some kind. In his mind, if they didn’t, they should. He believed all humans need at least one such haven. It should be a safe space in which they can insulate themselves from the inherent concerns of daily living. Such environments should quiet those inevitable, disturbing intrusions into one’s emotional equilibrium and well-being. Perhaps they can even elevate the spirit. At the very least, one should feel a temporary respite from the anxiety and worries of the world.”

Published by Page Publishing, Jim Reedy’s mesmerizing tale welcomes readers along for a ride through the fun, the challenges, the lessons learned, and the formation of lifelong friendships in this rite of passage from naïveté into adulthood.

Readers who wish to experience this engaging work can purchase “Tucker’s Angels” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Recent release “Midas: Living with a Bird in the Hood” from Page Publishing author Donita Kordonowy is the true story of Midas, an African gray parrot with a colorful vocabulary. Kordonowy recounts her conversations with her beloved bird while giving interesting context of their day-to-day lives.

Donita Kordonowy, an animal lover and parrot rescuer, has completed her new book “Midas: Living with a Bird in the Hood”: a good-humored and entertaining look into life with a cheeky talking parrot.

“Midas is an African gray parrot that was rescued in 2007,” says Donita Kordonowy. “After posting some of our conversations on social media, many friends fell in love with the ‘cantankerous’ old bird whose ability to be part of the conversation. He may be the cause of frustration one day but we are smiling about it the next day. Because we live in the hood, we don’t know what he is going to request or, should I say, demand at any given time. He has stopped us from arguing and made us laugh, left us wondering where he heard that from (as if we didn’t know) and kept us in constant awe at his many phrases.”

Published by Page Publishing, Donita Kordonowy’s playful tale originally began as social media posts shared to a Facebook page called “Midas’s Laugh Corner” for the amusement of her family and friends. They loved to hear Midas’ quips, and Kordonowy knew she had something special on her hands. Now compiled into a hilarious book, Kordonowy lists her absurd conversations with her parrot.

Donita Kordonowy and Midas live in what she describes as a “rough neighborhood.” Midas, who has a brain capacity equivalent to a human toddler, absorbs all the language from the colorful characters hanging around outside the house. This results in some highly amusing talk from a parrot! Midas and his quick wit are sure to charm readers just as he charmed the author.

Readers who wish to experience this lighthearted work can purchase “Midas: Living with a Bird in the Hood” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

By the time I was eight to ten, I noticed things were going on that reminded me of some things happening when I was a little younger before going to live with relatives. Things had gotten to be very difficult at the house in Atlanta than other families.

“Every day there were newspapers taped to the windows, and I was told not to mess with it. I would ask why, but mom would say, ‘Don’t worry about it, just don’t touch.’ Now when it came to my older brother, he never had newspaper in his room on his windows. It was just me and mom and elsewhere. My brother’s room was always in thick smoke from the smell of incense burning every day, with candles burning in a tin pan, that I was also told not to touch.”

Published by Page Publishing, Marilyn Evans’ enthralling tale is a portrait of a complex family. Being raised by a mother with schizophrenia was not easy on Marilyn.
