About

When Roxanne de Bastion inherited her grandfather Stephen’s piano, she discovered a cassette recording of him, and the astonishing history of the Holocaust, the piano, the man and her family began to unravel. In 1938, Jewish families were scrambling to flee Vienna and took out adverts offering their children into the safe keeping of readers of a British newspaper. 83 years later Guardian journalist Julian Borger came across the advert that saved his father from the Nazis. They share the revelations.
