Brooklynite Lost In Russia Without Trace
The Brooklyn born Isaac Elkowitz, an American citizen, vanished after leaving the US embassy in Moscow during World War II era. His cellmate Abraham Kalinski recounts Elkowitz’s 18 year journey from embassy intern to presumed prisoner in Lubianka, detailing failed diplomatic efforts and a coerced Red Army draft that ended with his disappearance. If alive, he would be in his mid forties, a faded figure in the Gulag system.
