"In Auschwitz, we were links in the same chain, saving each other."Poland, 1944. The train brings the huge family of 15-year-old Sarah Leibovitz to Auschwitz from Hungary. Sarah's mother and younger brothers end up in the gas chambers. Her father is forced to work in the sonderkommando — to burn dead bodies in the crematorium. Sarah herself gets into the women's block and works on sorting the prisoners' belongings. Very soon she is left alone — covering up the traces of crimes, the Nazis execute witnesses, including her father.After her father's death, Sarah helps the other prisoners survive. Risking her life, she passes notes and parcels, comes up with ways to avoid the gas chamber at roll call, and switches places with a woman during selection for forced labor. Several times she miraculously avoids death thanks to the help of the same prisoners and survives until the arrival of Russian soldiers in Auschwitz. Sarah Leibovitz's memoirs are an invaluable testimony to the incredible mutual assistance, courage and fortitude of all Auschwitz prisoners who are ready to do a feat to help their neighbor.
