Review of Good in the Midst of Evil

​Good in the Midst of Evil
Written by Dana Fast and Yvona Fast

If you’ve wondered what it’s like to live in the Ukraine, first with the Russian invasion, and now amidst the fog of war, you need to read this book. It’s not about the Ukraine. It’s about what happened in Poland in 1939 when the Nazi’s invaded, and afterward when they conquered and controlled the country.
 
It’s an unusual book, written by the daughter of a Holocaust survivor. This is her mother’s story, of how she escaped danger over and over again. It stalked her, no matter where she hid. Imagine changing your name, your personality multiple times as a child, to hide, so that you could survive.
 
The Ukrainians are paying a huge price for their defiance. Dana Fast told her daughter about the price she paid to survive, and eventually to thrive. It opened my eyes to the history of the past, and to how it’s repeating today.
