Resumen del Editor

Auschwitz, 1943: As I held the tiny baby in my arms, my fingers traced the black tattoo etched across her little thigh. And I prayed that one day this set of numbers, identical to her mother’s, would have the power to reunite a family torn apart by war….

Inspired by an incredible true story, this poignant novel tells of one woman’s fight for love, life, and hope during a time of unimaginable darkness.

Ana Kaminski is pushed through the iron gates of Auschwitz beside her frightened young friend Ester Pasternak. As they reach the front of the line, Ana steps forward and quietly declares herself a midwife--and Ester her assistant. Their arms are tattooed and they’re ordered to the maternity hut. Holding an innocent newborn baby, Ana knows the fate of so many are in her hands and vows to do everything she can to save them.

When two guards in their chilling SS uniforms march in and snatch a blond-haired baby from its mother, it’s almost too much for Ana to bear. Consoling the distraught woman, Ana realises amid the terrible heartache there is a glimmer of hope. The guards are taking the healthiest babies and placing them with German families, so they will survive. And there are whispers the war is nearly over.... Ana and Ester begin to secretly tattoo little ones with their mother’s numbers, praying one day they might be reunited.

Then, early one morning, Ana notices the small bump under Ester’s thin striped clothing.

An absolutely heartbreaking WW2 novel of one woman’s bravery and determination to bring life and hope into a broken world. Fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Alice Network, and The Nightingale will be gripped.

I just can’t..

I would like to start off by saying the Holocaust and everything involved was absolutely despicable. I am not someone who turns away from the sufferings of others.

I wanted to finish this book but I just couldn’t. I got to chapter fifteen and got physically ill. I read a review that said the book isn’t awfully gut wrenching but I found that not to be true for me. (I do happen to be VERY in touch with my emotions though lol)

If you are a mother of young children, this book is probably not for you. I just so happen to have a 1 year old and it hit a little too close to home for me.

Gripping, heartbreaking & Hopeful in meekest times! I couldn’t put this book down!

This novel is a must read [listen to] book!!!! This novel is so very heartbreaking, yet also an incredibly inspiring tale based on a Holocaust survivor’s story from such unimaginable part of history. Anna Stuart is a gifted writer with an eloquent perspective that keeps her reader going through a wide range of emotions!! I enjoyed jumping between multiple character points of view as well. This novel kept me hooked and yearning to hear more up until the very end!!

Excellent Read

Very well written, and very well narrated. I’ve read many World War II stories, and I’m constantly amazed by what humans can endure and how evil some humans can become.

Emotional beauty

I couldn’t stop listening! The narrator was phenomenal and I hung into every word! This was an emotional rollercoaster and I felt like I was there! Like I could will each character my strength and hold their hands through such a horrific time in history! God bless all who have been touched by the events from the Nazis!

Love survives evil

This is a story of the horrible effects of narcissism, evil in the world. The description of the conditions in the camp brought tears to my eyes . How someone could not believe this occurred is beyond me . I became so attached to Anna and Esther..

Great historical fiction

Thoroughly enjoyable and heart warming. Never forget the Holocaust, or those who struggled and survived.

Captivating story, British narrator is grating

As the book went on the incongruity of the British narrator became more and more annoying and detracted from the story. It is a gut wrenching story of course, but somehow the narrator was a detractor. Not sure if an “American” accent or a Polish type accent would make it a better listening experience
