I Escaped from Auschwitz: The Shocking True Story of the World War II Hero Who Escaped the Nazis and Helped Save Over 200,000 Jews

Although a testimonial full of unbearable, vivid horror and suffering, it isn't this that makes Vber's book so gripping, and so important. What endures is his robust personality, his unbelievable physical tenacity, and, incredibly enough, his sense of humour. In short, his character. Life in the camps was capricious enough, but this book slaps you with the fact that only those with a great and unshakable optimism had any chance at all. And moral people? Forget it. Dead within hours. The survivors had to tread on bodies to stay afloat. Talk about natural selection.

This is the kind of book that will change your life. Rudolf Vrba was interned in a concentration camp as a young boy, served in the forboding Sondercommando, the group of prisoners who ran the crematoria and are then executed , and then helped lead the revolt in Auschwitz. He finally escaped the camp hiding underneath the railway platform for a month.... He made his way to the Pope and warned of the coming extermination of the Hungarian Jews and helped to save them. I Cannot Forgive takes you on the intimate tour of the death camp.....meeting the victims, experiencing life as a prisoner. It is experiential, it allows you to experience the holocaust nightmare.....and to meet the cast of characters and to escape......truly a great adventure and learning experience.
