Good Morning is a tale of the twentieth century; its author, Joseph Stevens, is a child of that time's darkest hours. Beginning with Hitler's 1938 march into Vienna, the memoir takes us on a journey across Central Europe and through the worst years of Nazi rule, years in which Stevens lived among Lithuanian and Polish Catholics whose hatred for the Nazis was only equaled by their disdain for Jews. Like the hero of the film Europa, Europa, a young Jew who survives by playing the Nazi among Germans, the Communist among Russians, Joseph Stevens must become a consummate actor, assuming whatever role necessary to survive -- while always concealing his Jewishness. We have many accounts of Jews hiding from the Nazis, as well as memoirs of the various underground movements, but few have so well joined the survivor's with the partisan's tale, nor better illustrated the double-bind in which its Jewish author was caught. Good Morning, like all Holocaust memoirs, is a story of atrocity, yet detailing as it does his survival and ultimately successful life in America, it also serves as a testament to human resiliency.
