Remember Us is a look back at the lost world of the shtetl: a wise Zayde offering prophetic and profound words to his grandson, the rich experience of Shabbos, and the treasure of a loving family. All this is torn apart with the arrival of the Holocaust, beginning a crucible fraught with twists and turns so unpredictable and surprising that they defy any attempt to find reason within them. From work camps to the partisans of the Nowogrudek forests, from the Mauthausen concentration camp to life as a displaced person in Italy, and from fighting the Egyptian army in a tiny Israeli kibbutz in 1948 to starting a new life in a new world in New York, this book encompasses the mythical "hero's journey" in very real historical events. Through the eyes of 91-year-old Holocaust survivor Martin Small, we learn that these priceless memories that are too painful to remember are also too painful to forget.

Reseñas editoriales

Martin Small’s breathtaking autobiography, written with assistance from Vic Shayne, follows him from a happy Jewish childhood through the horrors of the Nazi concentration camps, and all the way into the modern day.

Peter Altschuler’s performance of this truly moving audiobook is characterized by his level tone and gruff but comforting voice, the perfect lens through which to experience Small’s rich and deeply affecting memories. This audiobook is made especially interesting as a memoir by Small’s choice to focus as much on life in the shtetl and in New York after World War II as he does on the grim realities of the Holocaust, suggesting that we would do well to remember the good alongside the bad, always.
Powerful Testimony • Rich Cultural History • Excellent Narration • Compelling Life Journey • Resilient Human Spirit

This book is not for the faint of heart but for those willing to hear the truth. This book is the story of an amazing life it was told brilliantly narrated beautifully worthy of five stars in every category. I won't forget. Mark in Wyoming

I will remember

I have read many books on the Holocaust, as my parents were survivors from Vienna, Austria. And this book is very well told, and worded brilliantly! You will learn a lot!
My only gripe is that he talked very fast at times, and I had to slow the speed down to catch what was said.

Very good! A history lesson for all!

Martin Small’s depiction of life before, during and after the Holocaust was wonderful, horrifying, distressing, and inspiring. I had read and heard about people going from being friends and neighbors to become instruments of Natzi atrocities. And also how many of the non-Jewish people said they didn’t know what was going on or it was others not me. To hear how an entire town save a very few became willing beasts was new.
He doesn’t mention how over 1000 years of the church teaching that the Jews killed Christ undergirded the antisemitism that went from latent to explicit.
Martin, smalls, life after being liberated from the Matthausen concentration camp was inspiring. I recommend this book to anybody that is interested in what really happened. And I defy holocaust deniers to listen to this, and continue to believe that it never happened.

The narrator was superb that needs to be said too.

One of best I’ve read/listened to on the Holocaust

Every so often, I listen to a story of the holocaust for my own understanding, and to remind myself to note the times in which we live, and to cherish family and peace. Odd that I would need reminding, but the pursuits of life are distracting to all of us. The prophecies of the Bible (a book written by Jewish prophets) mention a terrible destruction that was to happen twice. Both as one of the many signs of the first (in the flesh) and second (in His glory) comings of the Messiah. 70 AD was the first. I cannot help but think that what is called abomination of desolation by ancient prophets, by Daniel, and by the Savior Himself, is what is called holocaust by our generation. Jesus said in Matthew 24 that those of the generation that see "these things" would also see the rest of His words fulfilled. It is always a good idea to follow the counsels of the Messiah. This generation has more reason in doing so than any other. God bless the Jewish people.

Such an account....beautifully and painfully told.

the narrator needs to drink water and gets weirdly dramatic in parts that make it awkward. I made it through even with the tongue clicking. The story should be read by all.

Great book, it great narration

It is a powerful story that takes a reader from the warm memories of family and community through the horrors of the concentration camp to the effort of rebuilding a life, honoring the past, and moving forward in hope. We need to be reminded.

Unforgettable

I love this book! What a testimony to the Providence of God and the resilience of the human spirit! It is wonderfully articulate and beautifully read with such emotion, no holding back. I wish I could still meet the author. I wholeheartedly recommend it!

my favorite holocaust survivor book

In my journey to try to understand the atrocities of WW2, I now understand that I can never understand.

This story touches you more than memoirs focusing on life & survival from ghettos or concentration camps. Detailing the rich history and absolute joy of growing up in a Polish Shtetl, Michael weaves a thorough map of the depth of community that was lost in the Holocaust.

What hit me the hardest is that this story continues beyond the liberation of camps, continuing into the reconstruction of Michael’s life, the continued anti-semitism around the world, the life of hundreds of thousands of refugees with no country willing to take them in. You don’t hear about this in many books. You’re liberated, *Congratulations* and Everyone lives happily ever after. They don’t talk about the recurring trauma and nightmares, the true effect of living through absolute hell.

This is a remarkable book I finally feel like I’m hearing the entire story.

I’m finally hearing the entire story of WW2. A Must Read.
