A Match Made in Hell by Larry Stillman

"A Match Made in Hell" is the award-winning memoir of shy Jewish teenager Moniek (Morris) Goldner joining forces with hardened Polish criminal Jan Kopec to survive in Nazi-occupied Poland. First trained as Kopek's accomplice in robberies and black market activities, the orphaned Goldner eventually becomes an accomplished saboteur of the Nazi war effort for local partisan groups. Through it all, Goldner and Kopec forge a remarkable friendship and co-dependency born of need and desperation in a hellish time and place.

From the first line, this Holocaust memoir grips you with its searing action. . . A riveting first-person narrative. . . . Discussion groups will want this one."—Booklist "A very different kind of Holocaust story, full of drama and adventure."—Publishers Weekly "This book is an exceptional memoir of the Holocaust: it chronicles the personal and symbiotic relationship between a Christian and a Jew in an era of unfathomable hatred."—Foreword

Larry Stillman is a writer living in Lake Forest, Illinois. Morris Goldner lives in Chicago and is retired from the garment trade.
