In 1939, as the Nazis closed in, Alfred Berger mailed a desperate letter to an American stranger who happened to share his last name. He and his wife, Viennese Jews, had found escape routes for their daughters. But now their money, connections, and emotional energy were nearly exhausted. Alfred begged the American recipient of the letter, “You are surely informed about the situation of all Jews in Central Europe.... By pure chance I got your address.... My daughter and her husband will go... to America.... Help us to follow our children.... It is our last and only hope....” After languishing in a California attic for decades, Alfred’s letter ended up in the hands of Faris Cassell, a journalist who couldn’t rest until she discovered the ending of the story. Traveling across the United States as well as to Austria, the Czech Republic, Belarus, and Israel, she uncovered an extraordinary story of heart-wrenching loss and unforgettable love that endures to this day. Did the Bergers’ desperate letter find a response? Did they—and their daughters—survive? Did they leave living descendants? You will find the answers here. A story that will move any reader, The Unanswered Letter is a poignant reminder that love and hope never die.

On March 12, 1938, the German/Austrian Anschluss took place, and Germany took over Austria. The Nazis were welcomed by the Austrian people and the streets of Vienna were lined with Austrians cheering as Adolf Hitler and his fellow Nazis took a look at the captured-without-a-shot country. The only people not cheering the takeover were Viennese Jews, who realised what would happen to them under Nazi rule. And so the rush to get out of the Reich reached a critical point. Austria’s Jews began to use anything or anyone to get a visa to a “safe” country. Some did the equivalent of the tossing a message in a bottle by someone trapped on a desert island. “Help me, save me”. But in 1938, the many such letters went to strangers in the United States who had the same name as the letter writer. “Help me” “Sponsor me, help me get my family to safety.”One such plea, sent 65 years before to a man in Los Angeles named Berger, somehow wound up in the hands of Faris Cassell, a doctor’s wife from Eugene, Oregon. That letter, sent by Albert Berger in 1938, was just one of many sent to complete strangers named Berger in the United States. No one responded with any offers of help to get the Berger family out of Vienna. Albert and his wife died during the Holocaust, while their two daughters - then in their 20’s - made it to safety in the States and Israel and had families of their own.Faris Cassell, the Christian wife of the Jewish doctor from Oregon, decided to track down the Viennese Berger family and tell their story. And what a story it was! She tells of the larger Berger family from then to now. Cassell is a good writer and her book has few wasted words. I read many books on the Holocaust and this is one of the best.By the way, I both read and listened to this book, alternating the hearing and reading.
