Dont Go to Uncles Wedding: Voices from the Warsaw Ghetto
by Jenny Robertson
Category: History

When the Nazis invaded Poland, the Jewish population in Warsaw was the second largest in the world. Within five years it had been annihilated. We still know little about the Holocaust and specifically the ghetto. In this work Jenny Robertson weaves together background information and many personal accounts - from rabbis and lay-people, adults and children - to provide an entry into a doomed, enclosed world. The volume is about the quest to find God in the middle of a tragedy without precedent, the questioning and deepening of faith, and the opening up of new ways of understanding.
