"At the presentation of the book by Mr. Mair - Mario Maisis "The History of the Jewish Community of Chalkida - Memories 1940-1945", held on Monday, June 13, 2022 at the Red House, by the Jewish Community of Chalkida, the Soroptimist Club of Chalkida and the Evia Archaeophile Society, the Mayor of Chalkidea, Elena Vaka, attended.
"There is very little that one can add, after such a brilliant rendering of the plot and structure of the book by the distinguished speakers and above all by its author.
Through this book, the battle of good and evil is revived, once again. A battle that begins with each of us individually and reaches the great battles that determine the destinies of peoples. What remains is that good always survives, even if it does not survive in this world, it will surely come and vindicate us in the next.
The history of the Jewish Community is the history of our city. I can't tell her apart. We really thank Mr. Maisis, because he is the custodian of this History and through his writings he leaves a great legacy for the next generations", said the Mayor of Chalkideon in her short greeting".
