A readthrough of Clara Leiser's To And From The Guillotine, which she dedicated to her friend Mildred Harnack after receiving confirmation of her execution by the Nazis. This is a powerful piece, and I hope you all enjoy it. (Note: I do stumble or mispronounce things in some places, so try and bear with me.
