Death and Love in the Holocaust

The Story of Sonja and Kurt Messerschmidt

Beschreibung

Kurt and Sonja Messerschmidt met in Nazi Berlin, married in the Theresienstadt ghetto, and survived Auschwitz. They witnessed the death of Jews every day for two years, but never stopped building their own life together. The words of these survivors create a direct relationship with the reader, as if they were telling the story in their living room.
