“Until the German occupation of
Hungary on March 19, 1944, we and all the Hungarian Jews lived in a fool’s
paradise and closed our eyes to the tragedy of the Jews in Europe all around
us. Two months later, with all our property confiscated, we found ourselves,
the whole of my family and I, in a closed cattle wagon, on our way to Auschwitz
where all of them were murdered and I alone survived.”
From mid-May 1944, within forty-one days, three hundred and ninety-five thousand Hungarian Jews, among them thirteen thousand from the author’s town of Kassa and the villages around it, were deported to Auschwitz in southern Poland. Azriel Feuerstein, a 16-year-old boy, was the sole survivor of his family after they were deported, along with the rest of the Jews during the Second World War German occupation of Hungary, to the human slaughterhouse of Auschwitz Nazi Death Camp. The author penned most of these compelling words as events happened and within months of being liberated from Belsen Concentration Camp by the British Army in 1945. This first time told story makes for a gripping read. This book radically differs from the usual ‘Holocaust Memoir’ by the way the author merges the, sometimes humorous, concentration camp narrative with his conversations with an elderly Swedish lady, Fröken (Miss) Ulle, who worked at the boarding school that took him in after the dangerously thin 25-kilogram teenager spent months of convalescence in Swedish hospitals. A father and grandfather, Azriel lives in Israel with his family. You are taken into a world of evil, guided through a maze of bizarre
happenings from the Nazi Holocaust
