An excerpt from "My European Animus":

My parents
never met in Germany. At thirteen, my mother was thrown out of the illusion of
enlightened Mosaic assimilation. The light was turned off, crashing into the
black hole of shattered glass at Kristallnacht, walking through the night in
the streets of her childhood’s Hamburg. She never really arrived at morning’s
light, perhaps because she didn’t meet Dr. Brod. For the rest of her life, she
would wait for him, always prepared, dressed up for his arrival.
My father, a
broken link in a long chain of rabbis, crossed Nazi Germany on his way to work
on a farm. He was saved by an unknown, righteous officer at the Gestapo HQ, who
shouted at him that German word, which otherwise evokes such horrendous connotations—herauss, get out! And so I learned that just
like evil dwells in all of us, the spark of goodness may be found in evil’s darkest
cellar.
My father was
a man who set out on his road but never arrived at his destination. Thrown into
disarray by the losses, his mother turned into the ashes of Auschwitz, his
grandmother dying in Theresienstadt’s shadow of deception, he tried to create a
life for his offspring. On his way to the kibbutz in the Land of Israel, his
wings had lost their wind and his legs, stifled into clay, remained stuck in
the charred earth of Europe.
