Sol Silberzweig, Mama, It Will Be Alright
Yad Vashem, 2005 178 pp., $24 (abroad, airmail included)/ 85 NIS
Sol (Szulem) Silberzweig epitomizes the Jewish fighter and survivor. His
astonishing autobiography tells of his heroic actions in the Warsaw ghetto
where he managed to save family members; his survival through seven
concentration camps; his enduring romance with his childhood sweetheart
Gittel (Gloria); and later his fight with the American Unions to establish
his successful fur business in the United States.
Sol was determined to leave a written record of his life for his family
and the Jewish people. Sadly, he passed away during the final stages of
writing the book. It has now been published in memory of Sol and Gloria
Silberzweig z”l, Benefactors of Yad Vashem, and as a memorial to the six
million Jews who perished in the Holocaust.
“I recommend this volume, for I believe in the overall importance of
survivors’ testimonies. Due to their experience, they carry a unique
weight of authenticity,” said Nobel Laureate Prof. Elie Wiesel.
