"Dorothe Kress spoke to a standing room only audience in the community's Orchard Creek Lodge about her book The Risk: Forbidden Love Behind the Iron Curtain. Dorothe painted a vivid picture of life behind the iron curtain, and the difficulties of not conforming to expectations. She shared pictures from her life in Germany, and read passages from her book to the audience."
