By Chance Alone: A Remarkable True Story of Courage and Survival at Auschwitz by Max Eisen

5.0

This book is gorgeous. Accessible. Heartbreaking.

I visited Auschwitz in 2012. It was a gorgeous, sunny, spring day. The weather was entirely incongruous with what we saw. The stories we heard. The smell of two tons of human hair.

These are stories we need to remember. Stories that need to be shared. I am forever grateful to people who are willing and able to share these horrific parts of their past.
