The Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was such a good book. Not my favorite of this subject matter, but it ranks high. Most war stories center on the men. And there’s my disappointment. But I now see that the author has written a couple more books that are more my speed. Women existed and were put through even more torture because they were women. There are stories to claim half the sky, the good and the bad.
Still, the love story that sustained the main character, a crush more than love at first, makes the intolerable barely tolerable. A touch of hope that brings others light. I’d like to think that kind of light helped others trapped in that crazy, horrid existence. Richard Armitage, the narrator, brings the story to life.
Libby had this and the other two books, which I’ll start tonight. I recommend this author and this book.
