Viktor Frankl, a psychiatrist, was rounded up with his family and sent toAuschwitz in September 1942. Frankl later wrote in his classic book Man's Search for Meaning that the last of the humanfreedoms was the ability 'to choose one's attitude in any set of circumstances'.

This is a powerful and moving story of love, resilience and survival.…
