The Holocaust survivor who became my ‘adopted grandfather’

Outlook

Available for over a year

Food and a search for belonging is at the heart of an extraordinary friendship between Henry Wuga and Chitra Ramaswamy. Chitra is a journalist. Around ten years ago she was sent by her editor to meet Henry and his wife Ingrid. She was there to interview them about surviving the Holocaust for Refugee Week. But this was no ordinary interview – though they are decades apart, different genders and ethnicities, they all fell in platonic love.
