Book Launch: Dear Mutzi — Readings Books

Join us to celebrate the launch of Tess Scholfield-Peters Dear Mutzi.

Dear Mutzi tells the story of Harry Peters, Tess’s grandfather—known formerly as Hermann Ludwig Pollnow, and to his family as Mutzi. He was born in Berlin in 1920, and as a teenager fled Nazi Germany and landed in rural Australia. Harry’s parents, Max and Edith, stayed and perished in Nazi camps. Through the hybrid narrative non-fiction form, Scholfield-Peters investigates her family history from a third-generation perspective and seeks to share an ethical historical account of Harry’s life. 

Jordana Silverstein will join Scholfield-Peters in conversation.
