Description
by Janina Opdyke Smith (Author)
Irene's Daughter is a powerful and deeply personal memoir that weaves history, legacy, and love into an unforgettable story of courage across generations.
Born from silence and memory, this book is told through the eyes of Janina Opdyke-Smith, the daughter of Irene Gut Opdyke-one of the youngest and most extraordinary Holocaust rescuers of World War II. While Irene's wartime heroism has been chronicled before, Irene's Daughter offers something profoundly different: the story of what comes after survival.
Through lyrical storytelling and intimate reflection, Janina traces her mother's journey from Nazi-occupied Poland to post-war America, revealing how trauma, resilience, faith, and compassion shaped the woman Irene became-and the daughter she raised. As fragments of Irene's past slowly emerge, readers are taken behind the scenes of a life marked not only by unimaginable loss, but also by generosity, humor, grit, and an unshakable belief that one person can make a difference.
From Broadway's Irena's Vow to classrooms, film screens, and family kitchens, this memoir explores how history lives on in the everyday moments of love, parenting, and purpose. It is a story of inherited strength, moral courage, and the quiet choices that echo through time.
Emotionally rich and historically grounded, Irene's Daughter is a tribute to a remarkable woman and a reminder that bravery does not end when the war is over-it continues in how we live, love, and care for one another.
One person can-and does-make a difference.
