This moving and profoundly truthful story is told in the form of diary, kept by Angélika, the sister-in-law and friend of Klara, who wandered through war-ravaged Europe for two months after her release from Auschwitz before returning to Paris in August 1945. Gradually, with cold anger and pitiless lucidity, Klara reveals the full horror of what she experienced in Auschwitz as she struggles to readapt to normal life. With truth, dignity, power, and intelligence, this captivating novel captures the inhumanity of the death camps and the scars suffered by those who survived them.
