Choice. About freedom and inner strength of a person

One of the most powerful books about war and the inner strength of man.

In 1944, sixteen-year-old ballerina Edith Eger was sent to Auschwitz with her family. Just hours after her parents were killed, Nazi doctor Josef Mengele forced Edith to dance for her own amusement and survival. Edith and her sister survived the horrors of Auschwitz, Mauthausen, and Gunskirchen, the death camps. On May 4, 1945, Edith was pulled from a pile of corpses, barely alive.

Torture, hunger and the constant threat of death did not break Edith, and her inner world helped her find life-affirming strength and spiritual freedom. 35 years after the end of the war, having become a famous psychologist, Edith returned to Auschwitz to get rid of memories of the past and survivor's guilt. Edith alternates the events of her personal journey with touching stories of those whom she helped to heal.

This book is an unforgettable story of survival and healing, a story of liberation and the strength of the human spirit. It shows that we can always choose what life teaches us and how we respond to what happens. This is a life-changing book that will empower generations of readers.
