Produktbeschreibungen

From Kirkus Reviews

A striking Holocaust memoir, posthumously published, by a Romanian Jew with an unusual story to tell. From its opening pages, in which she recounts her own premature birth, triggered by terrifying rumors of an incipient pogrom, Bernstein's tale is clearly not a typical memoir of the Holocaust. She was born into a large family in rural Romania between the wars and grew up feisty and willing to fight back physically against anti-Semitism from other schoolchildren. She defied her father's orders to turn down a scholarship that took her to Bucharest, and got herself expelled from that school when she responded to a priest/teacher's vicious diatribe against the Jews by hurling a bottle of ink at him. Ashamed to return home after her expulsion, she looked for work in Bucharest and discovered a talent for dressmaking. That talent--and her blond hair, blue eyes, and overall Gentile appearance--allowed her entry into the highest reaches of Romanian society, albeit as a dressmaker. Bernstein recounts the growing shadow of the native fascist movement, the Iron Guard, a rising tide of anti-Semitic laws, and finally, the open persecution of Romania's Jews. After a series of incidents that ranged from dramatic escapes to a year in a forced labor detachment, Sara ended up in Ravensbrck, a women's concentration camp deep in Germany. Nineteen out of every twenty women transported there died. The author, her sister Esther, and two other friends banded together and, largely due to Sara's extraordinary street smarts and intuition, managed to survive. Although Bernstein was not a professional writer, she tells this story with style and power. Her daughter Marlene contributes a moving epilogue to close out Sara's life. One of the best of the recent wave of Holocaust memoirs. (b&w photos, not seen) -- Copyright ©1997, Kirkus Associates, LP.

Exceptional 21. November 1999
Von Joanna
Format:Taschenbuch
The best memoir about the Holocaust I have ever read--bar none. The angst of being torn from a pleasant, if not privileged, life and the rigours of surviving all the degrading and humiliating tortures and deprivations of the camps is told in such riveting detail. Sarah's amazing strength and cunning is remarkable. That she could make it into such a well told story, is more amazing still. This will always be one of my favorite books. I found it very inspirational.

WOW!!! 5. Juli 1999
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Taschenbuch
This is an exceptionally well told personal narritive of the holocaust because not only does seren write about her experience in Ravensbrok, but she also writes of her family struggles and of her prewar and postwar adventures. Do not leave this book sitting in the bookstore, I mean, they didn't kill innocent trees for nothing!!!
