Description

Hiding under a bed in an abandoned apartment, the morning after the soldiers killed his sister right in front of him, Abraham hears the cries of a baby coming from somewhere in the apartment. He finds a baby German girl, starving, ashen and cold, wrapped in a Nazi flag . Abraham believes that he is the soul living survivor of his family, not knowing that his father is alive and has been moved to the Ghettos. The story travels alongside both of them, their journeys of survival, their trials and horrors of this war. Abrahams life becomes about survival and keeping this baby alive and safe. While Abba (Abrahams father) is drawn deeper into the darkest side of the human condition. It is a heartbreaking journey of hope, set in wartime Poland, Germany and Austria. Although the characters are fictional, most of the accounts within are real. The Author interviewed Holocaust survivors and was given permission to interweave their stories into the life of Abraham and his father Abba. Somewhere off in the distance of this story, there exists the faintest light, that rises up throughout the slow and sad ache of darkness that surrounds them, giving both the characters and the reader - hope! First review on Goodreads: S. Soper/10/20/2019 Abraham was one of the best books I've ever read! Putting aside the very harsh and hard reality of the world he lived in at the time, it was a pleasure to get to know Abraham and his family. I find myself thinking often about him and wondering what he would do in certain circumstances. This book opened my eyes a little wider to the struggle people faced at the hands of the morally wicked. I have acquired a little deeper appreciation for all the comforts and freedoms I have taken for granted growing up, as this novel draws you in and really challenges you to confront and re-evaluate your own inner feelings of tolerance, family, hate, trust, hope, perseverance and most importantly, love. Set during a time of unimaginable devastation, Abraham was a very hard book to read in parts because no one likes to read about the horrors that mankind suffers at the hands of our fellow man, but at the same time, it also tells the story of one mans triumph over evil, and in this day and age, we all need just a little more faith that there is good in the world. This book offers that slice of hope and really showcases the power love has to overcome the most horrific of circumstances. I feel this book is a must read!!!
