Winner of: 2015 National Jewish Book Award; Biography; Autobiography; and Memoir This memoir is a fascinating portrait of mother and child who miraculously survive two concentration camps; then; after the war; battle demons of the past; societal rejection; disbelief; and invalidation as they struggle to reenter the world of the living. It is the tale of how one newly takes on the world; having lived in the midst of corpses strewn about in the scores of thousands; and how one can possibly resume life in the aftermath of such experiences. It is the story of the child who decides; upon growing up; that the only career that makes sense for him in light of these years of horror is to become someone sensitive to the deepest flaws of humanity; a teacher of God’s role in history amidst the traditions that attempt to understand it—and to become a rabbi. Readers will not emerge unscathed from this searing work; written by a distinguished; Boston-based rabbi and academic.
