This is a riveting account of two orphaned brothers whose courage enabled them to survive the rarely told horrors of the Holocaust in Romania. As Jews expelled from Bukovina & Bessarabia to Transnistria, young Joil & his brother Avrum witnessed the cruel deaths of their parents & many others. This is a deeply personal account told through the memories of a child. Readers will never forget the powerful & loving bond between these two brothers. This memoir becomes an inspiring & thoughtful experience for any reader willing to consider both the constructive & the destructive capacities of humankind. This is a story both poignant & triumphant as Joil recounts how he survived the Holocaust with an unmistakable optimism that ultimately brought him to the prairies of Canada. - from Amzon
