A beautiful, searing memoir that reflects on human experience as a whole rather than just Edith Eger’s personal experiences during the holocaust. It’s divided into four parts and each part has its own agenda in presenting the whole. A meditation on pain and forgiveness as much as the account of the suffering of one person, Eger looks not just at her experiences in a concentration camp but also how it shadowed her adult life and became something she chose to make her source of strength rather than a burden that dragged down her life. Utterly inspiring and moving. Highly recommend.

Inspiring, powerful and honest - a really fascinating read and very highly recommended.
I didn't expect this to be what it was - although obviously any Holocaust story is harrowing, the hope and life that ran alongside was amazing.
