Three Minutes of Hope: Hugo Gryn on The God Slot by Hugo Gryn
English | 2010 | ISBN: 1441140352 | PDF | 288 pages | 3,4 MB

Hugo Gryn's death triggered a huge outpouring of grief, not just from the congregation at the West London Synagogue where hewas rabbi for 32 years, but from the much wider audience who had come to know him as a regular panellist on The Moral Maze and through his broadcasts on various 'God slots' for the BBC and Capital Radio.

With just a couple of minutes to inject a dose of spirituality into the daily lives of believers and non-believers alike, Hugo's gentle humour, his warmth and compassion, his deep spirituality and his unquenchable faith in humanity made a lasting impression on listeners and he is remembered with affection by millions. This collection of his best radio scripts, arrangedby theme (ranging from the Holocaust to Mahatma Gandhi) and given a personal and historical context by Hugo Gryn's daughter, Naomi, will delight his existing admirers and bring his wit and wisdom to a new generation. It provides a fitting memorialin what would have been his 80th birthday year.
