Probably the most powerful book I have ever read! Aged sixteen, the author entered Auschwitz; when it was liberated she was found, left for dead and with a broken back, in a pile of bodies. The book is not a memoir of horror but of hope and of the choices we have that nothing and no one can take from us. It is beautifully written and its message is central to all people throughout their lives. Aged 90 and a Psychologist she is still working on herself and others. Read and re-read.
