Weeks later, he is approached by a mysterious figure with a surprising request: Will he join a secret group of archivists working to preserve the truth of what is happening inside these walls? Adam agrees and begins taking testimonies from his students, friends, and neighbors. He learns about their childhoods and their daydreams, their passions and their fears, their desperate strategies for safety and survival. The stories form a portrait of endurance in a world where no choices are good ones. One of the people Adam interviews is his flatmate Sala Wiskoff, who is stoic, determined, and funny--and married with two children. Over the months of their confinement, in the presence of her family, Adam and Sala fall in love. As they desperately carve out intimacy, their relationship feels both impossible and vital, their connection keeping them alive. But when Adam discovers a possible escape from the Ghetto, he is faced with an unbearable choice: Whom can he save, and at what cost ? Inspired by the testimony-gathering project with the code name Oneg Shabbat, New York Times bestselling author Lauren Grodstein draws readers into the lives of people living on the edge. Told with immediacy and heart, We Must Not Think of Ourselves is a piercing story of love, determination, and sacrifice for the many fans of literary World War II fiction such as Kristin Harmels The Book of Lost Names and Lauren Foxs Send for Me. 521 $a Adult. 650 0 $a Jews $z Poland $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Audiobooks. 651 0 $a Getto warszawskie (Warsaw, Poland) $v Fiction. 710 2 $a Playaway Digital Audio, $e issuing body. 710 2 $a Playaway Products, LLC, $e issuing body. 941 $a 2 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240409012643.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240125011009.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7BC06856BB4F11EE9799A7D243ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
