Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"A simply-told testimony of much power." -- Jewish Week

"An amazing account -- it makes you want to head straight for Holland and shake everybody's hand. . . . Horror is real; the Nazis insisted on it, sponsored it even. But decency is real, too, and sometimes it prevails. This book bears witness to that."--Washington Post

"Flory is a powerful memoir of persecution, survival, and a young couple's devotion."--Richard Paul Evans, New York Times bestselling author

"While the immediate association is Anne Frank's attic, Van Beek's straightforward account brings a fabled and singular Jewish culture to the forefront...her most striking touch is her account of the Dutch restoring their original street names after the defeat of Hitler."--Forward

"A vivid story of the Holocaust and its few survivors."--Booklist

"A simply-told testimony of much power."--Jewish Week

"Flory's story is filled with history, heartache and hope...an important contribution to the understanding of the horrors of the Holocaust and the spirit of survival."--Abraham H. Foxman, National Director of the Anti-Defamation League

"This has intrinsic value as a Holocaust survivor testimony."--Publishers Weekly

"This moving story of courage and survival is a must read for everyone, so that future generations of the world should never forget the Holocaust."--Rabbi Marc S. Rubenstein, Spiritual leader of Temple Isaiah of Newport Beach
