About this product
Product Information
Norway didn't have many Jews-but it had enough to attract Hitler's attention. It's 1940 in Norway, and one Jewish family would rather be thinking of anything else. Budding artist Rebekka Davidson sketches the soldiers filling the school and streets, while her cousin Harald Rosenberg learns that he'd rather read about Hitler's politics than experience them. Talented musician Ingrid Rosenberg prepares to go to her dream school while experiencing the wonders of first love-with the nephew of the leader of the local Nazis. Together, the family will do whatever it takes to return to normal life...but will it be enough? By the end of the war, Norway had lost a higher percentage of its Jews than almost any other country in Europe. This story, inspired by the author's own experience growing up Jewish in 1940s Norway, brings readers both young and old into the touching struggles of one incredible family. Norway wasn't too small for Hitler, and for some families, it was everything.

Reviews
Berman impressed me with a story that reads like an action-packed drama, animating through fiction the history she so carefully documented in her earlier nonfiction work.... Berman incorporates traits of her relatives into strong, complex characters who serve as able and appealing protagonists.... I urge everyone to read it, share it in book clubs and classrooms, and keep history alive., A gripping story of the little known history of Norway's Jews during World War ll. As compelling and moving on my second read as on my first. I couldn't put it down., Irene Levin Berman's riveting debut novel, Norway Wasn't Too Small, is a coming of age tale about a budding young artist caught in the midst of a unique and tragic moment in history. Based on true events, this is the untold story of the Holocaust: despite having the lowest number of Jews, Norway lost the highest number by ratio of almost any other country. It is a moving testament to the courage and resilience of those young people who, despite all odds, held fast to their hope and humanity in the Nazi era. This book will linger in the hearts of readers for years to come., A story of courage, loss, and dignity in the midst of Norway's holocaust--told by one who survived it. Norway's little-known story is an essential one for us to learn from, to record, to remember., This fact-based story of the Holocaust is a compelling educational and literary experience for young readers and adults alike! The vivid reality of daily life in Nazi-occupied Norway, the escapes to Sweden aided by resistance workers, the hospital ploys to save Jewish patients, and the ultimate round up and deportation of Norwegian Jews to death camps are all thrilling and heartbreaking as seen from the perspective of two teens., This is a book that will challenge many scholars and established orthodoxies within the various related disciplines of theology, religious studies, transcendental metaphysics and philosophical anthropology in its unique way of showing how it is possible to see the unity of all facets of reality. This rather engaging peculiarity uses the traditions of theological scholars enmeshed within the ambits of philosophy to argue the novel thesis that the totality of reality is suffused with an incarnate beingness. It is imaginable that over time, the views expressed therein may find favour with scientists, as the borders of dichotomies of reality are further eroded., Dr. Schade has taken the less-travelled road of using post-Hegelian thought to illuminate the traditional doctrine of God incarnate. Readers will find him a deeply thoughtful--at times even thrillingly adventurous--guide., A superb and chilling accounting of the domestic details of two Norwegian families coping with the Nazi invasion! You grow and mature with the teenagers as they recognize the horror they face. Nothing like it! A must read., Incarnation reveals a new dialectical relationship between human beings and God, God needs humans to be God; humans need God to be human., In this wide-ranging and fascinating essay in philosophical theology, Dr. Martin Schade proposes a new metaphysical/theological view that he names 'Dialectical Incarnation.' More than a metaphysical theory, dialectical incarnation is also a philosophical anthropology, a meta-ethics, and a normative ethics of love. The great strength of Schade's view is its panoptic scope and the measure of Schade's philosophical talent., The book is well organized and the thesis carefully and subtly argued. The ease with which Schade expresses the ideas is a reflection of his good grounding in both philosophical scholarship and intellectual tradition. In the book, Schade transcends the narrow conception of incarnation found in much of Western scholarship and argues for a broad conception that is all-inclusive. Schade's book is rewarding and refreshingly novel.
