The extraordinary true story of survival, hope and empowerment from a Holocaust survivor. THE AWARD-WINNING INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER 'I'll be forever changed by her story' - Oprah Winfrey 'I can't imagine a more important message for modern times. Eger's book is a triumph'- The New York Times ------------ Even in hell, hope can flower. In 1944, sixteen-year-old ballerina Edith Eger was sent to Auschwitz. Separated from her parents on arrival, she endures unimaginable experiences, including being made to dance for the infamous Nazi, Josef Mengele. When the camp is finally liberated, she is pulled from a pile of bodies, barely alive. The trauma of the Holocaust did not break Edith Eger. Instead, it became the foundation of an extraordinary life defined by resilience, compassion and choice. Emigrating to the United States, she trained as a psychologist and went on to help countless patients, including survivors of abuse and soldiers suffering from PTSD. The Choice is Edith Eger's unforgettable memoir. A profoundly moving true story, it shows that hope can flower in the most unlikely places.

"Our painful experiences aren't a liability-they're a gift. They give us perspective and meaning, an opportunity to find our unique purpose and our strength." ? Edith Eger,The Choice
Oh my goodness, I can't even begin to tell you how good this book is. It's not just another Holocaust survivors life-story, it's so much more than that ... it's extraordinary!
Dr Eger is now 90 years old and what an amazing woman she is ... this book tells the story of being a teenager and her relationship with her parents and sisters, the truly horrific time she spent being a prisoner of the Nazis, her astonishing strength and bravery before, during and after the war and of her life once freedom had been achieved.
Once again, I can't tell you how good this book is. It's beautifully written and flows exceptionally well. Highly recommended.
My thanks go to the publisher, Penguin Random House UK, Ebury Publishing via NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest review.
