Two Who Survived

Keeping Hope Alive While Surviving the Holocaust

De: Rose Schindler, Max Schindler, M. Lee Connolly

Narrado por: Rose Schindler, Michael Beck

Two Who Survived chronicles the true story of two children from different worlds: a city boy and a country girl. When the persecution of Jews begins, both are plucked from their reality and thrust into concentration camps. They are stripped of everything they know and forced to navigate a truly incomprehensible, volatile, dangerous, and unpredictable world.

Even when separated from support systems and family members, their drive to survive helps them navigate. Despite their exposure to the horrors of the holocaust, they endure and carry on with a determination that shapes their character forever.

Follow the lives of Max and Rose as they learn to adapt to a reality beyond belief and emerge stronger than ever. When they are finally liberated from their concentration camps, they navigate a new world individually before eventually coming together to form what each so tragically lost: a family.

Such a wonderful book

Rose recently came to my school to talk about her experiences, and reading her and Max’s book was wonderful! The heartfelt love story, and the interesting backgrounds were written to perfection! I would 10/10 recommend to my friends and family!

A beautifully tragic love story

A well written piece of love and loss. Bless Rose and Max, a true love story for the ages.

Worthwhile Book

Amazing. Humans are capable of so much when they have meaning in life. Found this great book after Man’s Search for Meaning. I hope it doesn’t take World Wars to have tough people again

Very powerful and unsettling!

There are many parallels to what is happening in our country, today. Many lessons to be learned!

A Neighbor's Story

I met Rose recently while walking my dogs around our neighborhood. She introduced herself and asked me if I'd read her book. I introduced myself and told her I had not, and that I would. I mostly listened while walking the dogs. Being in sunny San Diego during Covid-19, I was glad for the hat, sunglasses, and mask on my face. Hearing Rose's voice break while telling the most tragic moments of her story moved me from tears to straight out crying. Later, hearing the joy in her voice about her happiest moments and loving family, I was equally moved. Rose won't have to ask if I've read her book the next time she sees me; the answer will be running down my face! Thank you for sharing your stories, Rose and Max Schindler!

Incredible story

Incredible story, great read. This book does a great job of giving a first person narrative

Two Who Survived

Wow! This was an incredible story, and the story was told as if I were sharing the experience firsthand. I believe this should be required reading for all students across the nation. As stated in the book, It happened once; without due diligence, it can happen again.

lives renewed by hope love and remembrance

I have read or listened to many books on this subject. I am always amazed at those who survived. who pursue life and love. and have the strength to tell their stories.. thank you for sharing

to hear their voices . . . sometimes cracking with grief or tears is heart wrenching. I am thankful they have told this beautiful story. im sorry they lost so much.

We must never forget

This story is amazing. A story of things that we should all strive to make sure never happen again.
