YUTKA And the Voyage of the Parita

Based on a true story of courage, grief, and love.

Jewish youth nearly starve to death as the rescue ship Parita tries to break the British blockade to reach the Land of Israel. Meanwhile, the Nazis carry out unspeakable acts of violence against the families left leave behind. Based on an incredible true story of courage, grief, and love, YUTKA And the Voyage of the Parita, is rich in historical accuracy and authentic characters. It is an impassioned look into seventeen-year-old Yutka Lipka's harrowing escape to British Mandate Palestine in 1939, the grisly fate of her family at the hands of the Nazis, and the triumph of Israeli independence.

Yutka's son, Sam Regev, Ph.D., author of My Call of Abraham, translated her letters, postcards, and journals, and contributed photographs and memories, making Yutka And the Voyage of the Parita an authentic account of her traumatic journey.
