The Triumph of Hope by Ruth Elias

"If you could read only one Holocaust memoir--this should be the one."--Kirkus Reviews "The understated tone of this memoir adds to the author's powerful re-creation of her life as a young Czechoslovak woman during the Holocaust."--Publishers Weekly "Well-written ...not only provides a remarkably honest picture of the unspeakable reality of living in ghetto and slave-labor death camps, but also what it meant to be Jewish in Europe in the 1920s and 1930s. This is one of the best Holocaust memoirs I have read."--Washington Jewish Week Now available in English, this is the internationally acclaimed memoir of a Jewish woman who was taken to Auschwitz while several months pregnant. There she was forced to confront perhaps the most agonizing choice ever imposed upon any woman, upon any human being ...so that both she and her newborn infant should not die in a Nazi "medical" experiment. Ruth Elias currently lives in Beth Yitzchak, Israel.
