Each of us is a book waiting to be written, and that book, if written, results in a person explained.

I just finished listening to your recommended book “Last Call”. It was so good! The reader was easy to listen to. I really appreciated the author spending time on the victims’ lives and what society, their families, their friends, their social partners were like during the 80’s and 90’s. It gave so much context that explained the minimization of the murders and the murderer. I can’t wait to try another of your recommendations!

I also finished listening to “The Dressmakers of Auschwitz”. It was a different angle to the holocaust than I have read before. I appreciated how the focus was on clothing (or lack of) during this time: the German uniforms, the forced undressing as victims arrived at the concentration camps being so humiliating, and how the fumigating of clothing led to the invention of the gas chambers. And, it was a story of survival and some optimism which put some humanity and emotion into the gruesome life led by the prisoners of Auschwitz. Thank you for the recommendation.
