Book 1: The Auschwitz Tattooist
A book that combines a historical document with a real-life love story that survived the death camp is coming out from #bookhead.
The debut novel by Australian writer Heather Morris is about the power of love, faith, and inner resistance to overcome the most difficult trials. The book is based on real events.
In 1942, Lali Sokolov and Gita Furman met each other in the Auschwitz concentration camp. Her tattoo with a serial number had been erased, and he had to get a new one... It was love at first sight. The young people were destined to go through terrible trials, separation and the longed-for reunion, which turned into 56 years of happy married life.
Their love story was recorded by Heather Morris from the words of Lali himself, whom the author met by chance in 2003. This meeting changed the fate of both of them. Feeling trusted by Heather, the elderly man dared to tell her the most intimate details of his life during the Holocaust.
Heather first wrote Lali's story as a screenplay, which was highly acclaimed in international competitions, and later turned it into her debut novel, The Auschwitz Tattooist.
«The history of mankind is a history of wars, terrible losses, but also of love. Without it, our species would have ceased to exist long ago. When it comes to the Second World War, many of us ask ourselves questions: How did people manage to survive it? Where did our grandparents get the strength to go on? The Auschwitz Tattooist gives us the answer: because they had hope, because they loved in spite of everything. This book reminds the modern reader of what should never happen again, but also tells about what inspires and gives strength," says Svitlana Paveletska, co-founder of the #knyholov publishing house.
