Description

THE SUNDAY TIMES AND INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER ''A standalone classic . . . An incredible book, remarkable for its unflinching gaze at the past and also for its hope'' - GUARDIAN, ''Books to Give You Hope''''Remarkable . . . Makes it clear just what an achievement it was starting over again, when survivors were not only economically and physically depleted, but emotionally devastated, too'' - SCOTSMAN Eva was arrested by the Nazis on her fifteenth birthday and sent to Auschwitz. Yet she was one of the lucky few who survived, thanks to luck, determination and the love and protection of her mother Fritzi, who was deported with her.When Auschwitz was liberated, Eva and Fritzi began the long journey home. They searched desperately for Eva''s father and brother, from whom they had been separated. The news came some months later: both men had not been so lucky, and, tragically, they had been killed.But before the war, in Amsterdam, Eva had become friendly with a young girl called Anne Frank. Though their fates were very different, Eva''s life was set to be entwined with her friend''s for ever more, after her mother Fritzi married Anne''s father Otto Frank in 1953.This is a searingly honest account of how an ordinary person survived the Holocaust. Eva''s memories and descriptions are heartbreakingly clear, her account brings the horror as close as it can possibly be.But this is also an exploration of what happened next, of Eva''s struggle to live with herself after the war and to continue the work of her step-father Otto, ensuring that the legacy of Anne Frank is never forgotten. -----What readers think:''This is a must read book. Eva''s story runs the gauntlet of emotions from harrowing to inspiring.'' - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ''This story is almost unreal in its simplicity and horror. It is a definite MUST READ, especially by the younger generation.'' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ''Nothing less than remarkable and outstanding'' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
