| Publisher Description: Rabbi Moshe Weiss' journey to post-Auschwitz Poland is a stirring personal document. Read it and you will learn about Jewish dreams, hopes and prayers that turned into ashes in Oswiecim, Majdanek and Treblinka. You will hear unknown stories about Hasidic miracles and Jewish faith, as well as some shocking accounts about a Jew, Monik Marion, who allegedly worked for Himmler. Above all, you will accompany the author on his pilgrimage, looking for Jews but finding antisemites. Warsaw, Krakow, Lodz, Lublin, Prezemysl: what remained of a community of three million soul? Some cemeteries, a handful of survivors, many memories and infinite sadness. |
