Mailbox Monday: "Therefore, Choose Life. . ."


Thanks for joining me for Mailbox Monday! MM was created by Marcia, who graciously hosted it for a long, long time, before turning it into a touring event. Mailbox Monday has now returned to its permanent home where you can link to your MM post.

I am very excited about the book I got last week:



"Therefore, Choose Life. . ." by Moisey Wolf, edited and translated by Judson Rosengrant, published by OSU Press with the support of the Oregon Jewish Museum.

"Therefore, Choose Life. . ." is the autobiography of Dr. Moisey Wolf, who escaped the Holocaust, served in the Soviet Army during World War II, had a distinguished career as a psychiatrist in post-Stalinist Soviet Russia, and came to America in 1992. It's hard to imagine such a remarkable life lived in such extraordinary times. I want to dive right into this one.

  1. This does sound like a fascinating book about a remarkable life. I love the title--makes me want to read it myself.

  2. I've read so much about the Holocaust, but I'm always looking for a new take on it. This definitely sounds like the type I'd really want to read.
