Overview
A moving account of survival and faith from Israel Meir Lau, a Holocaust survivor and former Chief Rabbi of Israel, with forewords by former President of Israel Shimon Peres and the bestselling author of Night, Elie Wiesel—both Nobel Peace Prize laureates.
One of the youngest survivors of Buchenwald, Israel Meir Lau was just eight years old when the camp was liberated in 1945. Descended from a 1,000-year unbroken chain of rabbis, he grew up to become Chief Rabbi of Israel--and like many of the great rabbis, Lau is a master storyteller. Out of the Depths is his harrowing, miraculous, and inspiring account of life in one of the Nazis’ deadliest concentration camps and how he managed to survive against all possible odds.
Lau, who lost most of his family in the Holocaust, also chronicles his life after the war, including his emigration to Mandate Palestine during a period that coincides with the development of the State of Israel. The story continues through the present day, with that once-lost boy of eight now a brilliant, charismatic, and world-revered figure who has visited with three popes, the Dalai Lama, Nelson Mandela, and countless global leaders, including Queen Elizabeth, Ronald Reagan, Barack Obama, and Tony Blair.
Lau’s insightful reflections on his experiences during the Holocaust and World War II make Out of the Depths a compelling tribute to the strength and resilience of the human spirit. Originally published in Hebrew under the title Do Not Raise a Hand Against the Boy, this is a deeply inspiring and powerful memoir for readers of Holocaust books such as The Daughter of Auschwitz and Man’s Search for Meaning.
