We Should Have Talked The Biography Of Jacob Reich

Twenty years after his father’s passing, Joe Reich stumbles upon a video interview that reveals astonishing truths his father never spoke about in life. In its haunting accounts, Reich learns that, only days after the German invasion of Poland in 1939, his father faced a firing squad – and survived. The horrors that followed left him utterly alone, yet anchored by a cryptic prophecy promising that he would reach old age in a distant land. Against all odds, he fulfilled that destiny. Drawing on extensive research and numerous consultations, Reich weaves a vivid portrait of his father: an extraordinary man, Holocaust survivor, and devoted family patriarch. More than a remarkable survivor’s tale, this book explores the essential power of memory and the crucial lessons history imparts. Uplifting and profound, this is the story of conquering life’s darkest trials through resilience, hope and relentless determination.
