À propos de cet audio
Rosie was always told her red hair was a curse, but she never believed it. She often dreamed what it would look like under a white veil with the man of her dreams by her side. However, her life takes a harrowing turn in 1944 when she is forced out of her home and sent to the most gruesome of places: Auschwitz.
Upon arrival, Rosie’s head is shaved and along with the loss of her beautiful hair, she loses the life she once cherished. Among the chaos and surrounded by hopelessness, Rosie realizes the only thing the Nazis cannot take away from her is the fierce redhead resilience in her spirit. When all of her friends conclude they are going to heaven from Auschwitz, she remains determined to get home. She summons all of her courage, through death camps and death marches to do just that.
This victorious biography, written by Nechama Birnbaum in honor of her grandmother, is as full of life as it is of death. It is about the intricacies of Jewish culture that still exist today and the tender experiences that are universal to all humanity. It is a story about what happens when we choose hate over love.

Heartbreaking and Spellbinding
I’ve read many Holocaust survivor memories, but this one shook me to my core.
It made me laugh when her brother was saying how he was going to be rich and take care of them, it made me cry when she described the horrors that her and her sister lived through.
I’ve never heard of some of the things that happened in Auschwitz’s and Belkinbergen,(sorry for the bad spelling) like the hangings.
I loved how she was able to draw us in from her early childhood to her teen years spent in the camps.
She said they would come out alive and they did, the day that they opened the doors and saw the flowers blooming, was a new beginning.
I was so happy that both sisters found love and became gram parents/great/great great grandparents.
Thank you so very much for sharing your story and I’ll never forget.
As a side note, I just found out a year ago that my uncle who was very near and dear to me is 1/2 Jewish as his father was a Jewish man.
Happy listening everyone.

Amazing book, Annoying narrator
The story itself is heart wrenching and so amazing. Another eye opening book of the experiences of a woman who lived through Auschwitz. I feel like this book would be much more enjoyable if the narrator wasn’t so obnoxious.

Wow
How can I give five stars to a book that I put down twice; left me swearing and crying, and gutted me even into the epilogue? I can’t say I loved this book, given the harrowing and monstrous atrocities it is based on; however, it is a book that consumed me for well after its 8:45 length. Kudos to the author for such a fine piece of work and for honouring her Grandmother by enabling her memories to survive. And kudos to the narrator, who respectfully and so carefully gave life to the words. For me, her narration made for the best Audiobook I have ever read.

Read it - don't listen
for the most part, the narrator was ok. however, there were parts that it was grating on the ears... like nails on a chalkboard - particularly when attempting to sing or add inflection
