Sixteen-year-old Harry Haft is sent to Auschwitz. When he is forced to fight against other inmates for the amusement of the SS officers, Haft shows extraordinary strength and courage, and a determination to survive. As the Soviet Army advances in April 1945, he makes a daring escape from the Nazis. After negotiating the turmoil of postwar Poland, Haft emigrates to the United States and establishes himself as a professional prizefighter, remaining undefeated until he faces heavyweight champion Rocky Marciano in 1949. In The Boxer, Reinhard Kleist reveals another side to the steely Harry Haft: a man struggling to escape the memories of the fiancée he left behind in Poland. This is a powerful and moving graphic novel about love and the will to survive.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 796.83092 Haft Kl Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.83092 Haft Kl Checked out 06/18/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.83092 Haft Kl Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Biography B Haft Kl Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
