This informative and moving book has been difficult for me to plow through, even though it is well-written. What took place in Warsaw is almost unfathomable. Irena's work was brave and heroic, even if she herself did not think so. I keep thinking about those Polish people who in the pre-war years didn't like the idea of sharing their country with Jews. I wonder when the Germans' actions became too much for them. Was it when the Germans restricted Jewish businesses? Was it when Jews were forced to identify themselves with yellow stars on their clothing? Was it when the Germans forced the Jews to move to the Ghetto? Was it when they started shooting Jews for perceived offenses? When they rounded them up and put them on trains headed toward their deaths? When the children from the orphanage (with their caretaker who calmly refused to leave them) were put on those same trains? When they started shooting children in the streets? Only when the Gestapo tortured and killed sympathizers and people woring to save Jewish children? Or not even then? How does this story parallel with elements of our society in the US today? I can't think of anyone who wouldn't be moved by reading this book. ( ) While this book detailed the horrors of the war, it also showed the strength and resilience of those who refused to stand by and watch the horrors of World War II, Irena and those who helped her were inspiring from her fellow social workers. These stories are important to be told so that we don’t forget. I would recommend this book. – Reviewed by Carol ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
