Never Forget My Soul by Michael Milgraum  
 

A psycho-spiritual novel…a journey from trauma, loss and despair to hope, healing and renewal. 

Dr. Milgraum’s compelling new book is very much for our times, yet goes far beyond our times.  His narrative takes on a history of destruction and the shattered parts of ourselves with the profound conviction that there must be a better way to live.  His story demonstrates gently and with compassion that hope is renewed the moment a human being opens his heart to the plight of another.  And much more than a mere story, Never Forget My Soul is a journey toward the discovery of ripened, abiding spirituality.     

—Dr. Yael Danieli, Distinguished Professor of International Psychology at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology

The Story: Joe is a bold and crass surgeon, who scoffs at anything above or beyond himself and freely indulges his passionate appetites.  Adam is a painfully shy and anxious medical researcher, who seeks security in devout religious practice, but finds little relief from his discomfort.  These most unlikely of associates come together, with four other individuals, under the watchful eye of David Web, their group therapist.  In order to find healing, the patients must tell their stories, and, in so doing, Adam and Joe find a common bond in war-torn Europe and its soul-numbing Holocaust, sixty years before.  Both Adam and Joe must confront ghosts from that time, ghosts that now live in them.  Adam and Joe struggle together until both are forever changed, hope is renewed and a new spirituality is forged.
