Description
Surviving the Angel of Death is the autobiographical account of Eva Mozes Kor, a twin who survived the horrors of Auschwitz. Eva vividly narrates her experience as a Jew in Eastern Europe during WWII, from being bullied and hated by the people in her village on the edge of Hungary, to being packed into a cattle car with other Jews and transported to Auschwitz. As a twin, she and her sister were specially selected to be a part of the experimental research conducted by Dr. Josef Mengele, a Nazi known as the Angel of Death. Eva's captivating story of survival, and her struggle to find hope and forgiveness, powerfully recounts the gruesome horrors that she and other Mengele twins were forced to endure. The book is co-authored by Lisa Rojany Buccieri and includes several pages of photographs, including pictures of Eva and her family. 142 pgs, pb. ~Rachel E.
Publisher's Description of Surviving the Angel of Death: True Story of a Mengele Twin in Auschwitz
Eva Mozes Kor was just ten years old when she arrived in Auschwitz. While her parents and two older sisters were taken to the gas chambers, she and her twin, Miriam, were herded into the care of the man known as the Angel of Death, Dr. Josef Mengele. Subjected to sadistic medical experiments, she was forced to fight daily for her and her twin's survival. In this incredible true story written for young adults, readers learn of a child's endurance and survival in the face of truly extraordinary evil.
The book also includes an epilogue on Eva's recovery from this experience and her remarkable decision to publicly forgive the Nazis. Through her museum and her lectures, she has dedicated her life to giving testimony on the Holocaust, providing a message of hope for people who have suffered, and working for causes of human rights and peace.
