Overview
This three-book paperback collection gathers three of the most talked-about Auschwitz narratives of the last decade into one moving bundle. The Sisters of Auschwitz traces two Jewish sisters who ran a secret safehouse in the Netherlands. The Tattooist of Auschwitz follows Lale Sokolov's forbidden love story inside the camp. The Saboteur of Auschwitz recounts British POW Arthur Dodd's quiet acts of resistance. Together they offer readers a layered, humane look at courage under history's darkest conditions, ideal for readers of WWII history and biography.
About the Books
Each title approaches the Holocaust from a distinct vantage point, together forming a richer, multi-voiced record of survival and resistance. The Sisters of Auschwitz, based on Roxane van Iperen's archival research, follows Janny and Lien Brilleslijper, who sheltered fugitives from the Nazis in a rural Dutch safehouse before being deported on the same transport as Anne Frank's family. Their story became a New York Times bestseller, praised for its researched, personal account of everyday heroism. The Tattooist of Auschwitz, Heather Morris's internationally bestselling account based on years of interviews with survivor Lale Sokolov, follows the man forced to tattoo prisoner numbers onto fellow inmates, and the love he found with fellow prisoner Gita amid brutality. It became one of the defining Holocaust narratives of recent years, later adapted into a television series. The Saboteur of Auschwitz tells the little-known true story of Arthur Dodd, a British soldier sent to forced labor at Auschwitz, who risked his life sabotaging Nazi industrial operations and aiding prisoners. Colin Rushton's account brings a rare military POW perspective to the camp's history. Read together, these three books trace resistance from the perspectives of civilian rescuers, a prisoner-worker, and a POW, giving readers a fuller picture of the human spirit tested by atrocity, memory, and survival.
