PETER ROBINSON
Peter Robinson talks about the book “Saving Freud” which recounts the dramatic rescue of Sigmund Freud as the Nazis marched into Vienna. This fine biography is an absorbing chronicle of Freud’s harrowing escape and arrival in London. This thrilling edge-of-your-seat gripping of a truly dramatic story reads like a thriller and comes out in paperback this month.
