The True Adventures of Gidon Lev
Let's Make Things Better
Gidon Lev with Julie Gray
Gidon shares his extraordinary life and the hard-earned lessons behind his enduring optimism. A memoir about finding hope, standing up to hate, and embracing love and life.
“By sharing his inspiring life story, Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev reminds us that the human spirit is larger than even the most severe and unjust trauma. Through one of history’s darkest nights, he preserved his brightness and warmth.”
David Von Drehle
Author of the New York Times bestseller The Book of Charlie
“A book by Gidon Lev and Julie Gray is cause for celebration. Few contemporary writers offer us a vision of hope more compelling than this extraordinary duo. In Let’s Make Things Better, they have written both a beautiful memoir and a powerful manifesto for a life of meaning, a much-needed reminder that humanity is still worth believing in and fighting for.”
