The Ballerina from Auschwitz

After the international success of her memoir "The Choice" about her time in Auschwitz, Edith Eger decided to recount her story differently. So that it could be heard even by those who find it difficult to read about the Holocaust.... This is a new book, created to inspire, not to frighten. Eger speaks in the voice of young Edith, in love, dreaming, searching for herself. Openly and poignantly, she recreates from memory her childhood, first feelings, and the miracle of survival in tragic conditions, sharing her own pain and hope. And she once again calls out: "The choice I made as a sixteen-year-old, tormented by hunger and horror, on the brink of the unknown, is not that important. I cannot change the past. What matters is the choice I am making now — to accept myself as I am, a living imperfect human being who is prone to mistakes. To take responsibility for my own happiness, to continue living and thriving, making our world a little better with every moment."
