Always Remember Your Name: A True Story of Family and Survival in Auschwitz by Andra Bucci, Tatiana Bucci

4.75

emotional informative reflective sad fast-paced

---

Stories about the Holocaust, or any injustice rooted in fear of the “other,” have always hit different. It’s simply incomprehensible, to me, how people have the capacity to inflict so much pain. The Bucci sisters, after a traumatic childhood experience, are sharing their story with the world. Two Holocaust survivors recount their journey as one. Sisters, that by fate, luck, God, or all three, managed to survive and stick together, through the horrors of this period. Both heartbreaking and hopeful, this story reminds us the importance of remembering, sharing and being unified in love and compassion for one another. 

A simple and yet powerful narrative.
