Bizarre Holocaust Lies Support Publisher's Win

A woman who fabricated a Holocaust memoir must forfeit her share of a $32.4 million judgment that she won from her publishers, the Massachusetts Court of Appeals ruled.
Misha Defonseca struck a deal in 1995 with Mt. Ivy Press and the publisher's principal, Jane Daniel, for the release of "Misha: A Memoire of the Holocaust Years."
Defonseca spun a tale of survival that included her killing a Nazi soldier and adoption by a pack of wolves that provided her with food and companionship.
While "Misha" didn't find a large American audience, it was a bestseller in Canada and Europe. The story was translated into 18 languages and was made into a movie in France called "Survivre Avec les Loups (Surviving With the Wolves)."
