Reviews
Once in a rare while we read a book that puts the urgencies of our times and ourselves in perspective.... That has just happened to me. In telling her story--simply, without self-pity--[Mrs. Kovály] illuminates some general truths of human behavior. Anthony Lewis, New York Times, A story of the human spirit at its most indomitable ... one of the outstanding autobiographies of the century., This is a book that should never have had to be written; but since it had, we are lucky that it was done so well., Kovály's attention to the world's beauty, even while in hell, is so brazen as to take my breath away. [E.J. Graff, Columbia Journalism Review

Synopsis
Heda Margolius Kovály (1919-2010) endured both the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz and the brutality of Czechoslovakia's postwar Stalinist government. Her husband, after surviving Dachau and Auschwitz and becoming Czechoslovakia's deputy minister of foreign trade, was convicted of conspiracy in the infamous 1952 Slansky trial and then executed. This clear-eyed memoir of her life during those horrific days is resonant with lyricism, managing somehow to be heartening even as it helps us to understand the political tragedies of the twentieth century., Heda Margolius Kovály (1919-2010) endured both the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz and the brutality of Czechoslovakia's postwar Stalinist government.
