Book Description

December 19, 1994

Little Amy never knew her father. One dark night, when she was only a baby, the Soviet secret police forcefully arrested Amy’s father…and condemned him to the frigid wastelands of Siberia.

Then as World War II began, the armies of the Third Reich invaded her small Russian village. Amy, a tender seven-year-old child, was taken by cattle car to a slave labor camp and witnessed firsthand the horrors of Hitler’s Germany.

As the war ends, Amy and her mother make a daring escape, with execution the likely verdict if they are captured. Over the years Amy wondered about her father. Was he still alive? Would she ever see him again?

A true story, Goodbye Is Not Forever serves as a vivid confirmation of God’s never-ending grace in the lives of his children.

5.0 out of 5 stars A most touching account of a child's life during WWII, May 17, 1999
By 
Taiji 218 (The Frozen North) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Goodbye Is Not Forever (Paperback)
I plan to recommend this book to everyone I know. Amy George's account of life in the Soviet Union during Stalin, and of living with her mother hand to mouth as a "war slave" under Hitler was extremely eye-opening. Her account of life in an extremely hostile environment reminds all of us fat, lazy and overly comfortable American Christians just how complacent we've become in taking our political and religious liberties (not to mention our enormous riches) for granted. Amy's account of her gradual introduction to God in the midst of her suffering, and of her eventual conversion to Christianity is most uplifting and inspiring. I thank Amy for writing this most touching and memorable autobiography. Read the book. You'll be most glad that you did.

5.0 out of 5 stars As Good As "Hiding Place" by Corrie Ten Boom, February 29, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Goodbye Is Not Forever (Paperback)
Finally, a WWII memoir on par with Ten Boom's immortal classic. I, too, heard about this book on the radio reading circle, and was absolutely enthralled by it - I had to get the book for myself, my family and friends. It's amazing how Amy George, in her seemingly simple narrative, captures the manifold emotions of a child caught in a war so powerfully that my heart was at my throat the whole time. Read it and then thank God for this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational, shows the depth to God's love and mercy., January 7, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Goodbye Is Not Forever (Paperback)
Amy and her family certainly came through much more adversity than your average immigrants would. The mighty mercy and depth of God's love is shown again and again in this poignant story. I found myself emotionally involved with this tender story from the start and felt as if I had known her family personally. This story could put a very different perspective on our daily struggles. Thank you Amy, for your courage and committment. B. Clyse
