Where Light and Shadow Meet: A Memoir

Looks like a good read.

Wonderful book wonderful story wonderful lady

Emilie was the real strength of conviction behind the otherwise boorish, womanizing Oskar Schindler. This memoir / biography provides an amazing view of Oskar and his many corpulent weaknesses. One wonders if all those people would have been saved if their fates had been left to Oskar alone. The book itself is well-written and perhaps subject to some literary critique since Emilie never proclaimed to be a writer. It is true that Emilie seems to have had a "persecution complex" believing that she had to do all the grunt work while Oskar was out doing his thing. If one believes her remembrances, as documented, then that would be pretty accurate. I think that her co-author and certainly the editor could have made this book better by helping to downplay some of the "poor Emilie" aspects and adding more meat to her role along side Oskar. That said, I found little to be critical of in her style and delivery. Highly recommend this insightful, historical book.

If you know the story, or saw the movie you MUST read this book ! The back story was heart wrenching!I only wish I knew Mrs. Schindler's story much sooner .... Millions of us would have helped her , if only we had known.you will see Mr Schindler in a whole new light ...and it's not very flattering !It left me wondering if he did all of it to feed his ego . I don't understand how he could have done what he did to his wife.Although I am grateful he saved many, the suffering his wife endured because of him is incomprehensible .... and despite it all , she forgave him . Speaks volumes about the wonderful woman she was.Steven Speilberg should hang his head in shame for what he did when he made the movie.

Excellent book, just as good as Schindlers Ark.Delivery service top notch also.
