Marek Edelman (d. 2009), leader of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in 1943, published the book And There Was Love in the Ghetto. It is his story (recorded by Paula Savitskaya from January to November 2008) about life in the ghetto, about how - as he himself says - “even there, in inhuman conditions, people experienced wonderful moments.” Edelman believes that it is necessary, following the Old Testament commandments, to teach (especially young people) that “evil is evil, hatred is evil, and love is a duty.” And his book is such a lesson, taught in a bright, artless form and therefore making an unusually strong impression on the reader. The book includes a foreword by the famous Polish writer Jacek Bochenski, Edelman’s speech at the conference “Polish Memory - Jewish Memory” in June 1995 and a list of those mentioned in a book of people with brief information about each. “I am already the last one who knew these people by name and surname, and no one else will probably remember them. It is necessary that some trace remains of them.”
