He will stay in Auschwitz to the bitter end if it means his brother might survive.

Poland, 1940. Moshe and his family flee their hometown of Warsaw in a desperate bid for survival as Nazi forces advance on the city. Hiding under false identities, they hope to wait out the end of the war, which must surely be near.

But nowhere is truly safe for Poland’s Jews, and soon Moshe and his brother find themselves en route to Auschwitz, from where no one returns. Separated from the rest of their family, they hold on to each other with everything they have.

But a devastating accident leads the brothers to confront an impossible choice–stay together and perish in Auschwitz, or part ways for the smallest chance to survive. As the war draws to a close, Moshe is willing to do whatever it takes to keep his brother safe, even if it means remaining behind, alone, in the one place he is most desperate to leave.

In an unbelievable true story, Moshe and his brother face hunger, hatred, and one heartbreaking goodbye in the hopes of living to see the skies beyond the walls of Auschwitz once more.

I like that this was a true story written by the boy who lived through this.

True story

I loved this story but the narrator was a little hard to listen to for me.

Loved the story. Narration was ok

It is an amazing story and well-written, gives an in-depth pucture of what daily life was like in the camps. My main complaint is that the author gives so many detailed conversations and I don't the how he can actually remember them so closely! But not a major problem. It is a truly remarkable story!. Good narration!

Amazing story of young man's fight to stay alive!

The story is interesting but lacks a lot of detail and emotion. It’s more of a summary of Mr. Bomberg’s life. While his story is simply astonishing, I would have liked to hear more of his insights, emotions, and details. For example, he marries a young woman he barely knows and there is nothing that helps the reader understand why (other than she was a good dance partner).
That being said, the narrator may have impacted the experience. He sounds like a classically trained theater actor with pronunciation that just seems like theater drama (bag=bayg, drag=drayg) and it was distracting. He also has an over-annunciation as though he were narrating a work training video. His cadence just doesn’t suit the content. I always thought reviews that criticized the reader were irrelevant, but now I get it.

The Narration is…off

The narrator was a little “childlike” so was irritating to listen to this audible book.
