Crash of the Heavens: The Remarkable Story of Hannah Senesh and the Only Military Mission to Rescue Europe's Jews During World War II
The awe-inspiring and largely untold story of Hannah Senesh, a female paratrooper in World War II whose courage and sacrifice during a daring mission to rescue Europe’s Jews left an indelible mark on history.
In the years before World War II, thousands of young Jewish men and women escaped Europe, seeking safety in the British Mandate of Palestine. By 1942, horrifying reports began to spread about ghettos being liquidated, industrialized killing centers in Poland, and a chilling campaign to exterminate Europe’s entire Jewish population. When it became clear that the Allies were unwilling to spare any forces from the war effort to save civilians, the Jewish community in Palestine came up a daring plan.
Working with British Military Intelligence, an elite unit of young Jewish paratroopers volunteered to return to Eastern Europe. Once behind enemy lines, they would use their expertise in the local languages and terrain to rescue thousands of downed Allied pilots and escaped POWs who were trapped with no way to communicate—highly trained airmen desperately needed by the British and American air forces to fly more bombing missions.
At the same time, these volunteer commandos would help Jewish civilians escape deportation to Auschwitz and other death camps or take up arms in resistance against the Nazis. Hannah Senesh was one of only three women who made the dangerous jump into Nazi territory.
In 1939, at just eighteen years old, Hannah emigrated from Hungary to the British Mandate of Palestine, where she dreamed of being a poet and a schoolteacher. Instead, she became a poet and a paratrooper. Five years after fleeing Europe, Hannah parachuted back into occupied territory as a freedom fighter with the most crucial role in her the wireless operator tasked with sending and deciphering top-secret British radio codes. Though captured almost immediately after crossing the border into Hungary, she refused to give up her radio codes or any information about her mission, despite enduring months of horrific torture. Her final act of defiance—choosing to die before a firing squad rather than beg for clemency—cemented her legendary status as the “Jewish Joan of Arc.”
Hannah’s legacy lives on today in the widely published diary she’d kept since age thirteen and in her poetry which has inspired generations. Each year on Holocaust Remembrance Day, a short poem Hannah composed on the shores of the Mediterranean in 1942 is sung at ceremonies around the world. Titled “Eli, Eli,” or “My God, My God,” it has become a modern hymn, taught in schools, recited in synagogues, and printed in thousands of prayerbooks.
More than just a gripping historical account of Hannah’s life and afterlife, Crash of the Heavens offers a powerful reminder of the human spirit’s ability to shine, even in the darkest of times.

I am so thankful for this book. What a gift to know what actually happened to Hannah Senesh and to put it into context (both of her time AND today).
There are so many passages I want to share and her poetry too.
I will try to add some quotes, but if you are at all enticed, then read this book.

My first non-fiction book of 2026 was sobering, but enlightening reading. Subtitled The Remarkable Story of Hannah Senesh and the Only Military Mission to Rescue Europe's Jews During World War II, Crash of the Heavens is the work of Canadian investigative journalist Douglas Century who has made a career of unearthing stories about high-profile people, mostly gangsters. In that sense, then, Crash of the Heavens is a departure because although Hannah Senesh is a national hero in Israel, her story — and that of her compatriots and the Partisans who fought the Nazis — is largely unknown.
In 1942 when the fate of European Jews became known in what was then Mandatory Palestine under British rule (1920-1948), the activist Eliyahu Golomb (whose family had emigrated to Israel in 1911) floated the idea of sending multilingual Jews to parachute behind the lines to rescue downed airmen in Occupied Europe. They offered to complete rescue, espionage, sabotage and reconnaissance tasks to help the Allied war effort, and after that, they would do what they could to help European Jewry. Which they could not do without Allied logistical support.
The attraction for the Allies was that it was much quicker (and cheaper) to rescue downed airmen than it was to train replacements. By this stage of the war aircraft production was swift, but training pilots took much longer. Nevertheless, the Brits were not keen. 11,000 Jews had enlisted in the British Army during 1941, rising to 30,000 volunteers from Mandatory Palestine who served with the British armed forces during WW2. But once Rommel was defeated, the British then tried to crush the Palmach, the Jewish paramilitary organization formed in 1941 to defend the Palestinian Jewish community against the Axis or if there were Arab attacks on Jewish settlements. (The Brits were also suspicious of émigrés in case they were spies, and from what Century writes, this was not unreasonable: the Middle East was a hotbed of spies and counterspies, with double, triple and even quadruple agents passing on unreliable information, with ghastly consequences.) The Jewish proposal was dismissed out of hand until Colonel Tony Simonds saw its advantages and recruited members of the Palmach for the RAF.
Jews had fled to Mandatory Palestine since the rise of Hitler, and these émigrés spoke the languages, understood the culture and knew the terrain of their former homes in Central Europe. As we know from books and film about covert resistance operations in WW2, French and German-speaking operatives were recruited for the British Special Operations Executive (SOE), and these people of legendary courage included 3200 women. But speakers of other European languages were harder to find, and this was what tipped the balance in favour of the Jewish proposal, and of the decision to allow Jewish women to enlist. Hannah Szenes/Senesh, who emigrated to Mandatory Palestine from Hungary in 1939, was one of three female recruits among the 37 Jewish volunteers from Mandatory Palestine who parachuted into occupied Europe. The other women were the Czech Haviva Reik and Sara (Surika) Braverman from Rumania.
In the course of reading this book I learned much about WW2 in Central Europe. Complicated by the advance of the Soviets, it's a messy history of alliances that shifted when it became clear that Germany was going to lose the war (which is why, perhaps, books and film tend to focus on western and southern Europe).

Anna Szenes was born in 1921 in Budapest, Hungary. Her father, Béla, was an acclaimed poet, comedy writer, and playwright. Like others in their circle, the Szenes family were assimilated Jews. In the 1930s, the Arrow Cross Party, who were fascists like the Nazis they emulated, passed a series of increasingly restrictive laws that stripped Hungarian Jews of their civil liberties. Anna was appalled at her government's cruelty. She became an avid Zionist, and emigrated to Palestine in 1939. Upon her arrival, she studied agriculture for two years and then joined Kibbutz Sdot Yam.
Douglas Century's "Crash of the Heavens," the enthralling story of Hannah Senesh, is an eloquent and inspiring account of Hannah's transformation from a brilliant young student who wrote beautiful poetry and loved literature to a paratrooper who was prepared to die in the name of freedom and justice. She remained in Palestine until 1941, when she and other volunteers embarked on a clandestine mission organized by the British Special Operations Executive. Hannah and her compatriots would be dropped by parachute behind enemy lines in order to assist downed Allied soldiers and liberate Jews from their oppressors.
In this meticulously researched work of non-fiction, we learn about Senesh's grueling combat training, her longing to be reunited with her mother, Katalina, (who remained in Hungary), and her commitment to rescuing as many of her brethren as possible. This is not a quick and easy read. It is challenging to keep track of the scores of names, dates, and places in this nearly four-hundred-page book. The excellent index is invaluable for those who want to refresh their memories about specific facts.
The author humanizes his characters with vivid dialogue and strong descriptive writing, and he explores such thought-provoking themes as the virulent hatred of Jews, not only in Austria and Germany, but in Ukraine, Slovakia, Romania, and Hungary; the lack of a vigorous response by the allies to the mass executions of Jews, details of which were known early on; and the heroism of the kibbutzniks who placed themselves in harm's way to aid their brethren and stranded Allied soldiers. "Crash of the Heavens" is an enthralling, informative, and moving account of a remarkable young woman. it is also an enlightening exploration of the history of the times, and an in-depth portrait of a courageous group of male and female resistance fighters, some of whom made the ultimate sacrifice for a sacred cause.

Thank you to NetGalley for this e-copy of Crash of the Heavens byDouglas Century in exchange for a honest review.This is a well-researched yet very sad account of Hannah Senesh, a brave , young, Hungarian Jew who returned to Hungary in 1944 after emigrating to Palestine in 1939.She was a paratrooper who jumped behind enemy lines in the hope of saving her fellow Jews from the Holocaust.Unfortunately by the time she arrived many Hungarian Jews had already been sent to their death in Auschwitz .Hannah was caught , tortured and ultimately executed.This story sheds light on a brave young woman who put her countrymen before herself in the hopes that she could help them escape to freedom..Hannah Senesh ‘s life was the epitome of unselfishness and I am glad I learned about her.

Always heavy, but I feel like these stories need to be told.

Crash of the Heavens is a profoundly moving and beautifully told book. Hannah Senesh’s courage, faith, and humanity shine through every page, making her story both heartbreaking and deeply inspiring. As a reader from the Reading Party book club, I’m especially happy that the book was featured, and I truly appreciated how it honors her legacy while reminding us of the power of moral courage and hope, even in the darkest moments of history.

Crash of the Heavens by Douglas Century took my breath away! Hannah Senash was born in Budapest in 1921 and as a young teenager felt it she was shlichim, "one who is sent forth" to help others. Shortly after, she became a Zionist and began writing poetry. When World War II began, it was a natural progression for her to become a Jewish paratrooper with others in a group called Yishuv, working with the British Military Intelligence to do what she could to actively oppose the "crime without a name", or genocide. She found herself in the "cloak and dagger" role participating in extremely dangerous secret missions including blind jumps. Her work took her to many countries and even prisons. Not only did she vehemently resist but she faced the most impossible choice possible, to either save her mother or the lives of twenty. Despite continual brutal torture, she stood firm until her execution at the tender age of 22.
This phenomenal book is about Hannah's brief but impactful life from her childhood and fascinating parents to her raw uncompromising courage rescuing Jews. The author states states that every character and event in this book is true which makes it even more poignant and heart rending. Thankfully, Hannah shared her feelings and circumstances in several diaries which she kept hidden. Her personality shines through them and her poetry as well as the author's meticulous research. I like that he included her poetry as well as several diary entries, including her last one ever. In my view, she is a real life heroine, someone I would have loved to meet. What she suffered through is incomprehensible, especially as a young lady. Learning more about Yugoslavia and the Ustaše, Yishuv, Hebrew, and roles of countries such as Italy, Germany, Croatia, Slovakia and Egypt was enthralling and enlightening.
Some of the details are unflinchingly raw and difficult to absorb but oh, how important! If you are seek a different perspective on World War II that packs a powerful punch, this is absolutely not to be missed. My emotions ran the gamut from heartbreak to horror to frustration to cheering to hope.

It feels odd to five star such a solemn book. But, it is very well written. I had so many thoughts as I listened. I wish I would have stopped to write them down. One of the questions asked was why Hannah didn't ask for a pardon. So many ideas were floated. My theory is that she didn't ask for one because she simply felt she hadn't done anything wrong. I don't think it was for glory or martyrdom.
I used to be pretty naive and soft. There were times I felt sympathy for the old war criminals from the Holocaust. You know, just leave them be. They're old and it was so long ago. But, it wasn't really that long ago. And, I realized I wanted the guy guilty of leading to Hannah's death to be punished. I felt that he ordered her death by firing squad as a last bit of power. Out of pique for losing the war.
I thought the burning match poem, once it was read twice, should have ended the book. I still kind of wished it had. Then I wouldn't have known she was murdered.
I hope I came away with the wrong impression. I thought I heard about retribution to the British when guns were asked for from a criminal. Retribution? Hadn't they fought against the Nazis? Hadn't they lost a lot in doing so? Lives lost, the bombings of London, the harboring of Jewish children during the war? Wasn't that enough? Then again, to be turned away when they, the Jews, sought asylum... sigh.
I always thought the Jews were a more peaceable people. The retribution shattered that illusion.
A heavy book but, I am glad I listened to it.

Eighty years later a lot of amazing stories about amazing heroes are coming to the surface, including Hannah Senesh, a female paratrooper in World War II. When she was eighteen years old, Hannah emigrated from Hungary to the British Mandate for Palestine. She wanted to become a poet and teacher, she did become a poet and a paratrooper. She is a legend often referred to as “Jewish Joan of Arc.”

Crash of the Heavens is a gripping, humane, meticulously reported account of Hannah Senesh and the only Allied mission ever launched to rescue Europe’s Jews during WWII. The pacing is razor-sharp, the historical detail immersive, and Hannah’s bravery blazes off the page.
If you’re looking for stories with true cinematic scope and emotional force. This one has both in abundance. Century delivers a narrative so vivid and dramatic it practically storyboards itself.
A remarkable book — and, frankly, a natural for adaptation.
