Title
My Three Lives - Gizel Berman - A Story of Love, War and Survival.
Description
"One night, I had a flash of inspiration. I could distract myself from the horrors of the concentration camp by boosting the morale of the others. From then on, I was the Mad Clown of the barracks. I would mimic the guards, and joke about the German officers' fat wives. Nothing was too outrageous or ridiculous if it brought a few moments of laughter. I knew I was taking my life in my hands, but it didn't matter."
"The greatest contribution this book makes is to present a whole picture of the Holocaust-the despair, the destruction, the will to live. It's a moving story that doesn't minimize the horror, and ends on a note of hope."
"The idea of a 'third life' is missing from most Holocaust memoirs. It's what makes this such a compelling personal story. It engages you from the beginning.
