About this listen

Including a preface, introduction and some final words read by the authors, Gidon Lev and Julie Gray.

“To me, hard times are like hide-and-seek: where is the solution, where is the hope? We can never give up looking for these things because they are just waiting to be found.”

Gidon Lev, an 89-year-old Holocaust survivor, has lived an extraordinary life. At the age of six, he was imprisoned in the concentration camp of Theresienstadt. Liberated when he was ten, he lost at least 26 members of his family, including his father and grandfather.

But Gidon’s life is extraordinary not only because he is one of the few living survivors remaining but because of his lessons learned over nearly a century. His enduring message is of hope and opportunity – to make things better. By sharing his timeless simple belief and truths, Gidon reminds us that we have the power to incrementally improve what is in front of us and leave something better behind us.

His life is a lesson of how to do it, even in the face of astonishing adversity, and Let’s Make Things Better is the calling card of an indomitable spirit.

'By sharing his inspiring life story, Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev reminds us that the human spirit is larger than even the most severe and unjust trauma. Through one of history’s darkest nights, he preserved his brightness and warmth' – David Von Drehl, author of the New York Times bestseller The Book of Charlie

Critic reviews

A book by Gidon Lev and Julie Gray is cause for celebration. Few contemporary writers offer us a vision of hope more compelling than this extraordinary duo. In Let’s Make Things Better, they have written both a beautiful memoir and a powerful manifesto for a life of meaning, a much-needed reminder that humanity is still worth believing in and fighting for (Yossi Klein Halevi, senior fellow, Shalom Hartman Institute, author of the New York Times bestseller Letters to My Palestinian Neighbor)
In a clear and compelling way, Gidon Lev tells his fascinating story of survival, a story of hope that began to kindle when he was held in a Nazi concentration camp. Readers will feel empowered by Lev’s adventures and his companionate voice (Oded Adomi Leshem, author of Hope Amidst Conflict)
