520    This memoir is a fascinating portrait of mother and child 
       who miraculously survive two concentration camps, then, 
       after the war, battle demons of the past, societal 
       rejection, disbelief, and invalidation as they struggle to
       reenter the world of the living. It is the tale of how one
       newly takes on the world, having lived in the midst of 
       corpses strewn about in the scores of thousands, and how 
       one can possibly resume life in the aftermath of such 
       experiences. It is the story of the child who decides, 
       upon growing up, that the only career that makes sense for
       him in light of these years of horror is to become someone
       sensitive to the deepest flaws of humanity, a teacher of 
       God's role in history amidst the traditions that attempt 
       to understand it and to become a rabbi. Readers will not 
       emerge unscathed from this searing work, written by a 
       distinguished, Boston-based rabbi and academic.
