Reviews

"""This autobiography by Sibylle Sarah Niemoeller, widow of the admired German anti-Nazi theologian Martin Niemoeller, is both academically enriching and deeply moving. It shows the transformational impact Holocaust memories can have on a sensitive soul. In fact, meeting Holocaust survivors changed her life, leading to conversion to Judaism. Written with remarkable warmth and compassion, her stories bring her close to the grateful reader.""--Elie Wiesel"
