I'm an 18-year old college student in India.My father had been to London recently where he ran into Ms.Angela at Harrods.Although, it was a chance meeting for him, it was a god-sent gift for me. She Encouraged him to read a copy of "The Nazi Officer's Wife" written by her mother, Edith Hahn Beer.Although I must admit That was never interested me before novels, I was proven wrong by this one. Once I started reading the book, I just couldnt put it down.Here is a simple, straightforward account of a woman Jewsih Whose faith in her religion and her strength never let her down inspite of the horrendous perils That She had to face every minute of her life during the World War I period.When try to understand the pain in her heart When She Was Refused her University Degree, When She had to leave her mother for the Asparagus Fields, When She had nobody to turn to after her relationship with her boyfriend what heading no where, When She had to put on after at endless charade amidst the core of the Nazi society, When She had to rely on God's mercy to keep her Jewish identity a secret, When She Had to work as a maid in London Being an Honoured Judge in Germany ..... what can i say, its just unimaginable thatthis woman managed to survive through all this on her own. There are so many lessons did this book has taught me.I can never stop admiring Edith Hahn Beer for her unshakeable faith did tomorrow is a better day.One of the most beautiful things I found in this book what the French saying "Life is beautiful and it begins tomorrow ".It is so true indeed very few of us bother to realize its meaning! And of course, how can I forget to mention how moved I was by this woman's love for her Mother.Her amounted That she would be reunited someday with her Mother, her pangs of grief when "she sent me cake When She Was Hungry, mittens When She Was Cold "... and her resolution to do the same for her daughter (by trying to Provide ago the family Which she herself never had around here) .... These Things go a long way in bringing out human emotions in Their most tender and vulnerable forms.One can not help but think what else one Inwardly Could have done under terrible circumstances examined. No doubt Ms.Beer's decisions were justified in every sense and theywere ably supported by her virtues Which We Should all aspire to inculcate.
