Unflinching clarity reveals the unimaginable horrors and the incredible resilience that defines the lives of his family and his experiences being a child of survivors. The issues are explored with deep empathy, highlighting the complex legacy of trauma and survival.

?"Sharing where we come from and who we are is difficult. In Out from the Shadows, Willie Handler does just that, he exposes himself as part of a minority which historically has been blamed and hated for millennia. Releasing his memoir is both brave, and a strong move that is dedicated to helping save the world from it's own hatred. People can evolve as human beings, if they read and educate themselves. This book helps assist the reader in understanding and believing the history, and taking a look inward to recognize personal biases."
