This book made me cry when I realized the lifelong suffering that haunts Holocaust survivors, since few books deal with the decades-long aftermath. I could feel the love poured into their lives by the author who elicited their stories and honors them in the telling. -Suzette Martinez Standringm author and syndicated columnist This is not a story of the Holocaust or its terrors. Instead, it is the account of the souls of survivors and the resilience of the Jewish People, who in the aftermath of unspeakable tragedy, quietly rebuilt their lives in normal towns and cities, to create the North American Jewish landscape of today. This is an important read for all who seek to understand the personal and isolating impact of antisemitism and hate, and the healing power of community, love, and forgiveness. -Hazzan Devorah Fick, Spiritual Leader, Congregation Beth El, Windsor, Ontario This book is a true story about life and death, friendship and love, and above all else, listening to one's heart and soul. From the start, I was captivated as Pamela Goldstein, a psychiatric nurse, took me on a journey into her deep emotions that surfaced while working with Holocaust survivors-some of whom changed the trajectory of her life. -Merle R. Saferstein, author of Living and Leaving My Legacy, Vols. l and ll and former director of educational outreach at the Holocaust Documentation and Education Center
