Title: Fragments of Isabella Pdf A Memoir of Auschwitz
In 1944, on the morning of her twenty-third birthday, Isabella Leitner and her family were deported to Auschwitz, the Nazi extermination camp. There, she and her siblings relied on one another’s love and support to remain hopeful in the midst of the great evil surrounding them.
In Fragments of Isabella, Leitner reveals a glimpse of humanity in a world of darkness. Hailed by Publishers Weekly as “a celebration of the strength of the human spirit as it passes through fire,” this powerful and luminous Pulitzer Prize–nominated memoir, written thirty years after the author’s escape from the Nazis, has become a classic of holocaust literature and human survival.
This ebook features rare images from the author’s estate.
German death camp This book was a short read. The author told her story of what she and her family endured during their captivity in a death camp. It was heart-wrenching to read her account. Her prose was distinct in the way she described those days. It felt as if you were by her side. I enjoyed this book and would recommend this read to anyone that is interested in a firsthand account from a death camp survivor.A Chilling Tale Shared So innocently The writer was one of six children with their mother deported to a concentration camp. Her mother and youngest sister were immediately sent to the ovens. Their mother told them they must live, so they struggled to do that. They were separated from their brother but found each other after the war. They lost one more sister before the war ended. Their father had gone to the United States attempting to get his family there. It got approved after the war started and they were unable to go then. I don't know how you have a normal life after an experience like this. A friend of mine worked on my family tree and with the research he did, he found two people from my family who were murdered in the death camps. The author shared her and her sisters' account of being in Auschwitz and two other camps. They were teenagers then and experienced the worst from this period of their lives. Very touching!My heart wept This tale of love in an inhumane place moved my soul. The triumph of Isabella against insurmountable odds but at such a tremendous cost brought the faint pulling of my own Jewish roots back to life. She managed to make her story so compelling that I felt her victory, the sheet power of her will to live, lit a flame of incomprehensible pride in her, in those people who lived, in those people who died, in my great uncle Barish Meyer Rosenstein and his entire family who live only in the photo my grandmother gave me 35 years ago. I am humbled and so very impressed with Isabella and her harrowing tale. I couldn't put it down. Every person skulls read this to be sure that we never forget, never dismiss, never accept and so that Isabella's example never dies.
