About this listen

A fast-paced true story of Holocaust survival, where death lurks around every corner, The Journalist, a story unlike any other Holocaust memoir, depicts life in a concentration camp as well as tales of the death marches, a bold escape, the days of wandering in the forest dodging Nazi troops, the unceasing pangs of hunger, and the years of searching and longing to live in a free country. Will the journalist live to fulfill his destiny, or will his life be cut short by one of the world's biggest atrocities?

The Journalist is not just a book about how one man survived the Holocaust, but also about the principles he practiced that eventually allowed him to triumph in the midst of overwhelming odds. What keeps the journalist forging ahead when others gave up the struggle?

For those who are facing challenges, this book of survival is a reminder of the indomitable human spirit. It acts as inspiration for listeners to overcome obstacles in the face of danger and fear, and it's a story of victory over circumstance.

About the authors: Oxana was born in New York, New York the same year her father emigrated to the United States. He brought her up to respect her heritage and sent her weekly from an early age to learn Ukrainian history and culture. This knowledge has served her well since she was able to work as an interpreter in the ‘90s for various organizations in the Ukraine and Israel.

Valentyn was born in Ukraine and grew up under the oppressive policies of the Communist regime. Against this backdrop Valentyn became a freedom-fighter and used the power of the pen to express his anti-Communist views. However, when the Nazis took over, he found himself fighting against two fronts. He established himself as one of the leaders of the Ukrainian underground nationalist movement. After being arrested and surviving the holocaust, he emigrated to America in 1950 and continued his work.
