A Voice from Under the Rubble - Collector's Edition
What does hope look like after losing everything?
This collector's edition tells not only the story of one man-it preserves the journey of how that story reached the world.
Dr. Wael Abu Safa was a pediatrician, husband, father, and devoted caregiver in Gaza. Then, in a single devastating moment, war took his home, his family, and the life he had built. Left with unimaginable grief, he made a remarkable choice: to become a father once again to orphaned children who had nowhere else to turn.
What began with one child became a family of twenty-three.
Written from inside Gaza during the ongoing war, A Voice from Under the Rubble is a deeply personal testimony of loss, faith, survival, and the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit. Through stories of orphaned children, displaced families, hunger, compassion, and hope, Dr. Wael invites readers beyond the headlines and into the daily reality of life under siege.
But this Collector's Edition offers something more.
It chronicles the remarkable journey behind the memoir itself-how a doctor in Gaza, a humanitarian in California, and friends across the world worked together to preserve one man's testimony before it could be lost to history.
Inside this edition you'll discover:
• The Story Behind the Story - how this memoir came to life across continents during war.
• Personal letters and conversations between Dr. Wael and editor Gigi Wong.
• Additional reflections, poems, and essays inspired by the journey.
• Never-before-published photographs and archival material.
• The voices of the orphaned children whose lives continue because compassion crossed oceans.
More than a memoir, this edition becomes a living historical archive-a record not only of survival, but of the people who chose to stand together when the world felt impossibly divided.
This is not a political book.
It is a human story.
A story of grief.
A story of faith.
A story of love.
A story of resilience.
And a reminder that even in humanity's darkest moments, compassion can still cross borders, languages, cultures, and beliefs.
100% of the author's proceeds support Dr. Wael Abu Safa and the orphaned children in his care.
