Even though some questions are personable, the author does not shrug away but instead tells the heart wrenching story of her experience as a Jewish girl from Transylvania. She now is 94 and lives in Sweden but spent 30 years giving talks on her experience. Well written, easy to understand but more, broken up by question do the answers to everyday questions become a bit haunting.
So important to have works like these to present first-person accounts after the people who could share them have passed.

This was so incredibly powerful. Despite this book being short it packs an incredible punch. Through a series of questions. Hedi Fried talks in depth about her experiences of being in concentration camps in world war 2 and what caused her to arrive in those circumstances. She writes empathetically and with clarity about how the experiences she went through impacted her and how future generations can stop it happening again. Everyone should read this book.
