About the Book
"A shadow moved down the muddy road in pale moonlight. Its steps were urgent. A decision had been made, a course determined. The hours of deliberation were over "
Noah the Water Carrier is a collection of short stories whose setting is "T", a small city in Poland in the 1930's. The stories reflect the lives of Jews and Gentiles living together in a time and place that have disappeared forever. It was a time of change and even of optimism, before the Holocaust cast its vast net over an unprepared and unwitting people.About the Author
Joe Lumer was born in a displaced-persons camp to Holocaust survivors after World War II. He has been trying to understand the meaning and implications of those times for many years. Noah the Water Carrier and Other Stories is an attempt to comprehend the events of the Holocaust from a different perspective of time.
