A moving memoir of a son’s relationship with his survivor father and of their Eastern European journey through a family history of incalculable loss. Jason Sommer’s father, Jay, is ninety-eight years old and losing his memory. More than seventy years after arriving in New York from WWII-torn Europe, he is forgetting the stories that defined his life, the life of his family, and the lives of millions of Jews who were affected by Nazi terror. Observing this loss, Jason vividly recalls the trip to Eastern Europe the two took together in 2001. As father and son travel from the town of Jay’s birth to the labor camp from which he escaped, and to Auschwitz, where many in his family were lost, the stories Jason’s father has told all his life come alive. So too do Jason’s own memories of the way his father’s past complicated and impacted Jason's own inner life. Shmuel's Bridge shows history through a double lens: the memories of a growing son’s complex relationship with his father and the meditations of that son who, now grown, finds himself caring for a man losing all connection to a past that must not be forgotten.

"Riva Chirurg lived through the catastrophe that befell the Lodz ghetto. She served briefly as Rumkowski's secretary, and perhaps more significantly, was part of an ardent, idealistic corps of individuals who craved to start life anew in Palestine and trained themselves towards that eventuality."--

"The world is a very narrow bridge. The main thing is not to be afraid." The joyous, positive message of the outstanding Chassidic luminary, Rebbe Nachman of Breslov (1772-1810) is more relevant & needed than ever. "Crossing the Narrow Bridge" gives clear practical guidance as to how his teachings can be applied in everyday life today. The author, Rabbi Chaim Kramer, is director of the Breslov Research Institute, which for the last eleven years has been publishing authoritative translations of Rebbe Nachman's works in English & French. Rabbi Kramer has drawn on years of intimacy with leading figures in the Breslov Chassidic communities to bring this tradition to the reader in the form of numerous anecdotes & insights. Lively, down to earth, & easy to read, "Crossing the Narrow Bridge" covers all aspects of the Rebbe Nachman's teachings--from faith, simplicity, prayer & meditation to earning a living, health-care & bringing up children, etc. Each of the twenty chapters offers a basic understanding of its topic as seen through Rebbe Nachman's own lessons & stories, together with practical suggestions enabling the reader to translate these teachings into his own life

Kurt and Sonja Messerschmidt were among the last Jews deported from Nazi Berlin. They were among a handful of couples who were married in Theresienstadt, and are possibly the only pair who lived to describe their wedding. They survived Auschwitz, and unimaginable slave labor in other camps. Kurt was one of two survivors of a group of death marchers in southern Germany. They found each other again after liberation, and eventually emigrated to the United States. As told to Steve Hochstadt as part of the Holocaust and Human Rights Center of Maine's project to record and preserve individual experiences of Holocaust survivors, this book captures Kurt’s and Sonja’s separate but always intertwined stories. Their accounts, as improbable as they are moving, tell from both sides how a loving relationship formed in persecution became an element of survival in the Holocaust.

The book bridges the conceptual and practical gap between a psychoanalytic focus on the internal world and the dynamics of external reality by examining an array of junctures in which the two perspectives combine to enrich each other. Starting from the inherent bias of the psychoanalytic immersion in working with the internal world, the book deals with a wide array of phenomena in which a binocular perspective is potentially contributing. One such bridge is exemplified by the Group Relations approach, which richly combines psychoanalytic insights with systemic ones. This unique merger is valuable in studying a variety of phenomena both within psychoanalysis and outside it. The work of the analyst in the psychoanalytic setting implies situating oneself on several boundaries - internal and external, love and admiration as well as death and destructive impulses - and the courage and sacrifice demanded by taking up this role. This binocular perspective has significant implications for the formation and maintenance of identity and particularly for the psychoanalytic identity.
