The memoir of Helen Weinberg depicts the plight of a young woman who hailed from Kremenitz, Poland. Separated from her family during World War Two, she was imprisoned, beaten, starved and tortured. This story is told using her own words from stories, essays and poetry translated from Yiddish and Polish, and serve as a guide through the different periods of her life. The pen and paper were her catharsis for the emotional torture she endured and provide a window into her soul.PRAISE FOR WHITE ANGEL'This book is a wonderful tribute to the multifaceted life of an extraordinary grandmother. Written by P’nina Seplowitz with great respect and much love, it traces the story of a woman who was exposed to the most horrific manifestations of human cruelty and who emerged with powerful strength to create a new world, who responded to the assault of death with an outpouring of life. The book is warm, touching and beautifully written; it will inspire its readers, young and not so young alike.'- RABBI JACOB J. SCHACTER,Yeshiva University'White Angel is a thought provoking work of Holocaust literature. Helen Weinberg’s remarkable story elicits the sorrowful burden of a broken nation and the glimmer of hope that existed with the establishment of the State of Israel. White Angel is an essential staple for any home or school.'- RABBI DOV LIPMAN,Member Israeli Knesset'P’nina Seplowitz does a terrific job of telling an inspirational, yet tragic story, through the eyes of her heroic grandmother. This book is a must read for all those looking to be inspired by the strength of the human spirit.'- RABBI STEVEN BURG, Simon Wiesenthal Center
