Managing Bubbie is Lazega’s first foray into creative nonfiction. This beautiful and delightful work tells the heartfelt story about a very special, devoted and endearing grandmother who was a Holocaust Survivor and, with incredible fortitude, shaped her destiny despite her tragic past. Lea Lazega’s strength inspired her adored grandson Russ, to at last be her true “storyteller” and write the book she always wanted him to write, which is an incredible tribute and blessing to her beloved memory.
