"Kiss Talks"

An unforgettable experience for your book club, book store, study group, and more.

Writing The Kiss was a ten-year journey that began with a seemingly impossible challenge: to find survivors of a community that was wiped out in a two-day massacre in 1941.

There were invaluable guides along the way: A renowned musician. A controversial Holocaust theologian. A page from a 75-year-old phone book.

But the search for even a single survivor seemed impossible.

Then, an incredible series of coincidences led to an extraordinary group of survivors who would breathe life into The Kiss—and inspire the message at its heart: Each of us has a gift—and with it, the power to change the world.
