  Book Description
  Publication Date: April 4,
2001
  In 1944, 13-year-old Fritz Tubach was almost old enough to join the Hitler Youth in his German
village of Kleinheubach. That same year in Tab, Hungary, 12-year-old Bernie Rosner was loaded onto a train with the rest
of the village’s Jewish inhabitants and taken to Auschwitz, where his whole family was murdered. Many years
later, after enjoying successful lives in California, they met, became friends, and decided to share their intimate
story—that of two boys trapped in evil and destructive times, who became men with the freedom to construct their
own future, with each other and the world. In a new epilogue, the authors share how the publication of the book changed
their lives and the lives of the countless people they have met as a result of publishing their story.
  
  Editorial Reviews
  From
Publishers Weekly
  More a pair of parallel memoirs than the anatomy of a friendship, this unusual book
recounts the stories of two friends: Rosner, a Hungarian Jew, was uprooted from his life and sent at age 12 to
Auschwitz, where he lost his entire family; Tubach, the son of a German soldier, at nearly the same time was sent to a
Nazi training camp (though, afterward, his stepmother, defying the local Nazi youth group, steered him away from joining
the Adolf Hitler school). The book's structure is unusual: not only do both authors contribute to each chapter in
alternating sections, but Tubach's sections are written in the first person, while Rosner's are written (at his request)
in the third person. This approach underscores how Rosner reinvented himself after his privations, while Tubach's path
was more direct. Intriguingly, Rosner who came to the United States thanks to a GI who generously invited him into his
family became a corporate counsel for Safeway, while Tubach who also emigrated to the U.S. after the war found himself
wary of power and sympathetic toward student radicals during his tenure as a professor of German at Berkeley. Their
friendship, initiated in 1983 by their wives, is undergirded by a "common belief in Euro-American cultural traditions,"
such as classical music and faith in a common humanity. Still, the friendship grew only gradually, with Rosner slowly
revealing heartrending bits of his story of endurance and survival when the two couples took several trips to his
childhood village. (Apr.)
  
  From School Library Journal
 
Adult/High School-"We are more than our histories" is the message of this shared memoir. Two grown American men meet in
California in 1983 and slowly exchange stories of childhoods in their respective European villages. With time and trust
they are able to divulge the particulars of a deeper and more troubling kinship. As teenagers during World War II, they
struggled on opposite sides of the Holocaust, Rosner as his Jewish Hungarian family's only survivor at Auschwitz and
Tubach as the son of a German Army intelligence officer and a member of the Jungvolk, a pre-Hitler youth organization.
Tubach serves as the straightforward and almost dispassionate narrator of these alternating stories of the unimaginable
horror of a concentration camp and the confusion and suspicion within a German village on the periphery of Nazi madness.
As with other accounts of survival, readers are compelled to consider to what extent who we are is determined by
experiences and forces beyond our control, whether a random act of individual kindness or a movement of mass hysteria.
While there is inherent drama in these disparate stories, it is the trajectory that each one takes to converge many
years later that makes these remembrances powerful and distinct. Ultimately, this is a book about the importance of our
common humanity, about resilience and redemption, and about not letting symbols such as a yellow star or a swastika
define or confine us.Margaret Brown, Arlington County Public Library, VA
 

  From Booklist
  Rosner and Tubach met in the San Francisco Bay
Area in 1983. Tubach's wife, Sally, was a high-school friend of Rosner's wife; Tubach was a professor at the University
of California, Berkeley; and Rosner was a lawyer. Rosner, a Jew, was born and raised in the Hungarian village of Tab. In
July 1944, when he was 12, Rosner was sent to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. He was sent to Mauthausen in
September 1944 and was freed in May 1945 when that camp was liberated. Tubach was the son of a German army officer and a
member of the Jungvolk, the boy's division of the Nazi Youth Movement. While Rosner endured the degradation and
inhumanity of the camps, Tubach suffered only a scarcity of food and air raids that disturbed the family's sleep. Rosner
and Tubach recount their early lives in the U.S., including their struggle to get an education. What began as a
pleasant, if superficial, friendship between the two men, became in time one of respect and understanding. George Cohen

  From the Back Cover
  "I was very
touched by the story beautifully told in An Uncommon Friendship. The pain and suffering brought on by the Holocaust is
described in a riveting way. The book shows how a chance meeting followed by a deep friendship can lead to compassion,
forgiveness, and understanding on a deeply personal level."-Barbara Boxer, United States Senator "Fritz Tubach and
Bernat Rosner perfectly link the abstract horror of the Nazi death machine with the harmless-seeming, rural somnolence
of European village life in the '30s. An Uncommon Friendship is tangible, real, heart-breaking, awesome. This double
memoir of a German youth and the Hungarian-Jewish youth he befriended in later life is absolutely unique and stunningly
beautiful."-Carolyn See, author of The Handyman "I read, admired and was gripped by the counterpoint memoirs of Bernie
Rosner, a Hungarian-born survivor of Auschwitz and Mauthausen, and Fritz Tubach, the son of a Nazi German army officer.
Factual, measured, unemphatic, sharply evocative, their linked stories prove extraordinarily moving. An original
document not to be missed and an absorbing read."-Eugen Weber, author of The Hollow
Years
