Why people recommend it
The Choice by Edith Eger and Jorge Paredes is a powerful memoir by a Holocaust survivor that examines resilience, forgiveness, and the human capacity to choose one's emotional response to trauma. On The Daily Stoic, Ryan Holiday recommended the book, noting that it demonstrates how even in the direst circumstances, individuals retain the power to choose their internal narrative rather than becoming corrupted or broken. Megyn Kelly similarly recommended the memoir on The Megyn Kelly Show, highlighting its central message that while suffering is an inevitable part of life, victimhood is ultimately a choice. Holiday also praised the book on On Purpose with Jay Shetty, calling it a standout read about overcoming profound fear. In a subsequent interview with the author on The Daily Stoic, Holiday discussed specific passages from the book regarding parenting a child with disabilities and exercising cognitive control over painful memories. Additionally, Tim Ferriss brought up the memoir on The Tim Ferriss Show during a conversation with Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, who recognized it as a deeply inspirational work.
