This is a must read! It reinforced to me how we should never judge others. Its so easy to be a "Monday morning quarterback", sitting in our own comfortable chair, warm and dry, safe and well fed- we can never imagine or predict what we would do confronted with the same circumstances that Anna had to deal with. Imagine her courage at the age of 20 dealing with such horror and enduring such trauma to save her daughter! My uncle was one of the liberators of a German concentration camp when the war ended and he woud NEVER speak of what he saw no matter how we begged him to tell us - so the silence of Anna was very realistic. This book is now one of my all time favorites.
