Book Review: "Not Without My Sister" By Marion Kummerow



Two sisters split apart by hatred and brought together by LOVE!

What could be better than this?

Marion Kummerow has brought us a heartbreaking historical fiction that results in some thoughtful reflection upon Nazi prisoners in concentration camps who were abused, humiliated, tortured, and sadly murdered by individuals seeking domination and control over one race.
Yet, Rachel Epstein and her 4 yo. sister Mindel knew that being taken by the Gestapo and to camps labeled as "star" camp for Jewish people might just result in their death.

Rachel was captured and taken to work at the factory while witnessing many go hungry, starving to death, and being brutally abused her sister experienced similar mistreatment.
However, it was the ending of this that brought hope, light, and love.

Through all the trials and tribulations one thing was certain- their lives were meant to be meaningful and they would die trying to maintain a sense of dignity and respect.

Rachel and Simon were such a perfect couple until the newest addition to their family was declared and everyone's hearts melted.

A perfect ending for this memorable new work by Marion Kummerow.
