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

5.0
An incredibly well-written and extremely accessible first-hand account of the horrors of the Holocaust. Eisen balances factual retelling of his experiences with the fear and uncertainty he lived through. You can tell, all these decades later, that writing the memoir was a painful but important step in fighting the current pervasive shift back towards fascism.
Definitely recommend.
