An inspiring account from one of history’s darkest moments. Marione Ingram grew up in Hamburg, Germany, in the late 1930s and early 1940s. She was German. She was Jewish. She was a survivor.

She grew up in an apartment building where neighbors were more than happy to report Jews to the Gestapo.

Three of the seven “prophets” presented in this audiobook—Descartes, Rousseau, and Nietzsche—provoked or facilitated, through their intellectual activity, great upheavals. The others—Pascal, Kierkegaard, Dostoevsky, and Soloviev— predicted these very upheavals but showed us the way to overcome them. If we study all seven of these philosophers in depth, we will have an easier time grasping the essence and origin of the universal drama now unfolding before our eyes and we will make wise and courageous choices for a better future.
