More DescriptionDiscover the TruthMemories of a Devil is the compelling journal of a young Jesuit priest who was a prisoner of Dachau, a Nazi concentration camp near Munich, Germany.Father Chester Fabisiak, SJ, a newly ordained Jesuit, was well-prepared spiritually, academically, and practically for his ministries. However, the beginning of World War II changed everything. He found himself confined in eight prisons, two forced labor camps, and finally Dachau.Facing death and torture was his daily experience, and his journal presents a vivid, horrifying picture of human beings capable of the most profound cruelty and inhumanity toward others.However, for Father Fabisiak, Dachau was not just a scene of atrocious suffering but also an opportunity to see the world from an entirely new perspective.Father Chester Fabisiak, SJ recounts many new historical facts and reflects on the human will that was consistently challenged by God and evil. He skillfully demonstrates how a wrongful ideology can rapidly spread and embed itself in the minds and souls of the young and naïve.Learning from the past can keep moral and ethical principles alive and prevent our dark history from repeating itself. Efforts to ignore the truth sanctify evil.Father Fabisiak devoted his life to God and his fellow human beings. He enthusiastically taught children and adolescents in preparation for their world, as well as for their eternal lives. His journal, Memories of a Devil, is his educational, intellectual, and spiritual gift to the new generations. May Father Chester Fabisiak, SJ¿s teachings live on, inspiring old and young to live each day and find the glory and joy in life and the love of God.
