Mother's Memoir Chronicles Grief After Son's Death in Gaza Tunnel

Mother's Memoir Chronicles Grief After Son's Death in Gaza Tunnel

Rachel Goldberg-Polin has released a memoir detailing her profound grief following the death of her son, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, who was killed in a Gaza tunnel. Hersh was one of the hostages taken by Hamas during their attack on October 7, 2023. Despite a high-profile campaign led by his family for his release, Hersh was killed along with five other hostages in August 2024, after nearly a year in captivity. The memoir, titled 'When We See You Again,' offers a raw and unfiltered account of Rachel's emotional journey, avoiding any narrative arc or uplifting message. Instead, it focuses on the intense pain and the quest for understanding her 'why' in the face of such loss. Rachel's efforts to secure her son's release included media appearances, meetings with then-president Joe Biden, and addressing the Democratic National Convention.
