They Forgot to Tell Me I Was Jewish is the story of acclaimed jazz pianist Les Horan, born in Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia. They Forgot to Tell Me I Was Jewish begins with a montage of Les' early memories: When his family is hiding in an underground bunker, he thinks they're camping in the woods. When Hungarian soldiers, under the impression that he's a girl, take him on a picnic, he has no idea of the danger he's in. It would appeal to listeners who want to learn about the effects of the Holocaust, postwar anti-Semitism bound in a uniquely personal memoir.

Much has been written on the last words of Jesus, the traditional phrases taken from Scripture that depict the final moments of Jesus's life as he dies on the cross.

Yet interlaced with suffering, the focus throughout is on the immense love of God for human beings, shown in the gift of Jesus, God made flesh.
