Excellent and Inspiring - Rated
A friend who was emigrating to Canada gave me this book years ago and I've read it so many times. I find it inspiring and an easy (but sometimes harrowing) read! There is strength to be found in even the most dire situations! I preferred this book to Anne Franks Diary. Another book I've read is The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom - and both are in the same league as each other!
I would highly recommend this book as it shows the evil of man's heart but also the strength of will to survive this evil.
One of the best|! - Rated
I first found out about this book when my year six teacher was reading it to us in our English lesons. When she had finished reading us this moving story, she told us that she knew Eva and that Eva was coming to meet us to answer our questions! Everyone was so excited because we where all moved by her story. We met her and asked her questions about what was it like not being able to eat a full meal after coming out of the camp. She was one of the nicest woman we met and where really excited when we found out she would be joining us on our year six trip to Holland! We went on a trip to the Anne Frank house and we all felt her pain when we found her Father's name in the book of names of the people that had been killed in the camps. Parts of the story that me and my fellow classmates loved in the story was how her mother had to be marched away but fell pretending to die of exaustion. The guards did not shoot her and she managed to get back to Eva, who was only 14 at the time! I know this review did not tell you much about the book, but hopefully it has told you a tiny bit about the fabulous woman who wrote this sad but triumphant in the end book. I know that many people won't get the chance to meet her, but this book, get's you as close as you need to go! It's one of the best! Rachel Lynch xxxx
a moving book - Rated
I've read eva's story and I was moved to tears on more than one occasion during the reading of it. I was frightened with her and when she described her first senses of liberation I felt elated with her yet scared at the same time. I'm 17 roughly about the same age as she was back then and I find it terrible to think about what teenagers went through during the holocaust, It is a moving book which I think everyone who is stdying the holocaust should read.
Really moving - Rated
This book is, possibly, more moving than Anne Frank's diary. It describes the conditions in concentration camps vividly, and makes it stick in your mind. The author seems brave, and has an undeniable faith in God. It makes non-Jews like myself (i'm christian) feel awful about the way the jews were treated, often betrayed by the people they thought were friends. If you have never really thought about the holocaust as something that could affect you, read this book. It makes you realise that if this ever happens again, it will happen to you. I cried while reading this book. Read it.
Totally awe inspiring - Rated
When i picked up this book i was totally unprepared for the mindblowing accounts she maks of her life at Aushwitz. You can feel nothing but admiration to see and feel her bravery and determination to survive. her descriptions really opened my eyes to the atrocites suffered by so many, a book which MUST be read - she deserves it.
