Connecting the Past to the Present.
The firsthand and the inter-generational experience, the key, without it there is no memory once we are gone.
Memory is Our Home, a historical memoir and a gripping true-life story, real people living real lives, a worthy addition to high school and college curriculum.
Transmitting the memory of the vibrant culture before the Holocaust is just as important just as the memory of the Holocaust, to combat ignorance and prejudice and sharing of cultures and knowledge of history. It was always my goal to bring this book out of obscurity and into a wide readership, a book that can be read at the high school, college level and beyond, while teaching the important aspects of Eastern European twentieth-century history.
Memory Is Our Home (Beshert) pays tribute to Jewish legacy, to a young woman’s courage and endurance, on the background of Eastern European history.
Leading scholars in the US and Israel have responded with praise, noting its historical value, its ability to inspire and teach readers young and old, and the important contribution it will make to current and future generations.
Warsaw was called the Paris of the North. In vivid details the book describes the vibrant political, economic and the flourishing creative life. My mother’s community, siblings, extended family are brought to life. Jews had a long history in Europe and Poland, their future was forever severed, never to recover.
The past is our guide to the future. We owe our very existence to those who came before us. Without memory there is no History. Each generation inherits history from the generation before, it tells, how as a society we behave and how we change.
