Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Artists, Writers, & Musicians Publisher's Summary: In this lecture, Dr. Ben Tolila tells the fascinating life story of Heinrich Heine.

His uniqueness lies in the fact, that he was very familiar with the German people, and therefore was also the first to predict the Holocaust, which took place less than 100 years after his death. In his poems and in his journalistic articles, he was able to provide a good description of the tumultuous situation of his time. Please note: the audiobook is narrated in the Hebrew language.
