Notes/Takeaways/What I loved:

• Based on a true story
• Lale Sokolov is a walking green flag
• The element of friendship, trust, and loyalty in what could be the most devastating experience for any human being
• No boring bits - every sub-story leads to a bigger story
• Wit and survival instincts can take you further than you can imagine
• “To save one is to save the world.”
• “Be attentive. Remember the small things and the big things will work themselves out.”
• “As long as we are alive and healthy, everything will work out for the best.”
