An incredible account of one Jewish Polish man's journey as he narrowly escapes death so many times, I lost count. Szpliman writes well enough for readers to forget he's not actually a writer at all.

I don't think there is ever a real happily ever after for Holocaust survivors - he loses everyone he ever cared about, including the only Nazi with morality (I really appreciated the closure on this),

but I'm grateful to him for sharing his story
