β¦ Synopsis
August, 1944, Auschwitz. The skinny little girl with dark eyes looks nine rather than her real age of fourteen. Flanked on either side by her older cousins, Inka and Carmella, she has survived yet another selection for the gas chambers. Inka maintains that when the SS man passes in front of Guta, an angelβs hand covers his eyes so that he cannot choose her. And so it seems. All the horrors and cruelty, miraculously, do not crush this remarkable child. We are left in awe at her resilient, life-affirming spirit. Guta Goldstein focuses her story through the eyes of the child she then was, and she tells it with skill, humility and grace. Her gift restores one more previous piece to the shattered mosaic, and we are thankful. βAlex Skovron With an excellent memory and a perceptive eye for detail, Guta tells her story. Throughout the dark madness of the Ghetto and concentration camps, Gutaβs pure spirit shines like a beam of light, maintaining the higher qualities to which humans aspire. This is an uplifting book that will bring tears to the eyes of any reader. βMimi Roennfeldt
