Summary
The Holocaust didn't really end in 1945. Not for everyone. Even after the war, survivors' lives were influenced by their terrifying experiences. Some of them were never able to retell their stories - for others, it took decades.
In My Mother's Ring: A Holocaust Historical Novel, Henryk Frankowski feels compelled to pen his memoir and finally share his poignant story from his hospital bed as he lay dying. His carefree childhood as a Jewish boy in Warsaw, Poland is never far from his mind as he recalls the tumultuous world he endured during the Holocaust. Henryk speaks uninhibitedly about the intense bond he has with his family, particularly his adoration for his nurturing mother. Ultimately, the Frankowskis' lives are broken apart as World War II ignites and the Nazis storm across Europe, imprisoning and killing millions. As senseless restrictions are implemented, living conditions are compressed, circumstances turn dire, and callous disregard for human life runs rampant, Henryk must find the resilience to carry on. All the while, he dreams of a family reunion in Warsaw.

Brilliant....
storyline, even though it was fiction, quite a lot of it was facts that happened during the Holocaust which made it feel more real, so well written. The narrator was very good.

Definitely worth a read
This account of life during world war 2 for a yungJewish man and what become of his family is well worth listening to. If only to respect how hard one had to fight just to survive through it. It doesn't just end at libertarian but continues on after accounting how do you begin life again as a free man. listen right to the end to appreciate it fully.
