Praise From Readers of AHO

untitledI am surfing the net and low and behold, I learn that Amazon has a separate sales page for “A Hebraic Obsession” under the title of “Paperbacks.” My book has three reviews that I have never read.

Amazon you are tricky devils not merging hard-cover reviews with paperback reviews. I wonder if their is a financial motive. Well that explains why that smirky smile on your logo.

Well here are the three reviews:

In ‘Hebraic Obsessions’, Mort Laitner shares with us his stories on growing up as a child of Auschwitz survivors. He shares with the readers his personal accounts and relationship regarding his father, Dr. Wolf Laitner who was a Jewish medical doctor working in the camps. I found the book to be a real-page turner with really interesting topics and included historical facts that I had not known before. The flow of the book was a bit hard to follow because in spite of a mostly somber tone the author tends to include a little humor into the chapters. I could also do without some of the more graphic sexual portions of the story. The descriptions don’t really add much to the overall story. I related to the part where unlike his father, Mort feels that he is not a risk taker. I am constantly telling myself to not be so paranoid and take some risks! At the end of the book, Mort also encourages his son to take risks. My father is also a doctor encouraging me to respond in the same profession as he. Overall, easy to start and easy to read especially with the large margin layout. Learned a lot! Will pass on to a friend!

In “A Hebraic Obsession,” Mort Laitner describes his life and his family, as well as a historical insight at the events of the Holocaust. Laitner focuses majorly on his father, Dr. Wolf Laitner, ad his experiences during the Holocaust. Reading this book, you can really see how Mort Laitner looked up to his father and possibly viewed him as his biggest role model. In my opinion, the book is a powerful account of the life and upbringing of Mr. Laitner, in a moment in history that was so life changing. I recommend the book and anyone who reads it will learn so much and be touched.

5.0 out of 5 starsI would certainly recommend this book to anyone who is looking to read …

This book is definitely a page turner. The stories shared in this book are incredibly interesting and descriptive. I felt as if I could pin point the authors emotions and was also experiencing them while reading the stories. I would certainly recommend this book to anyone who is looking to read well-written and engaging short stories.
