The Blurb.....
I tattooed a number on her arm. She tattooed her name on my heart.

In 1942, Lale Sokolov arrived in Auschwitz-Birkenau. He was given the job of tattooing the prisoners marked for survival - scratching numbers into his fellow victims' arms in indelible ink to create what would become one of the most potent symbols of the Holocaust. 

Waiting in line to be tattooed, terrified and shaking, was a young girl. For Lale - a dandy, a jack-the-lad, a bit of a chancer - it was love at first sight. And he was determined not only to survive himself, but to ensure this woman, Gita, did, too.

So begins one of the most life-affirming, courageous, unforgettable and human stories of the Holocaust: the love story of the tattooist of Auschwitz.



My Blurb.....

Completely blew me away.
I loved it so much I bought the audiobook so I could listen to this at work when I want to.
My heart went up and down on more than 1 occasion. A story to keep sharing and never forgetting. That through all these strong people went through in these camps should always be written down and shared.
Heart breaking, heart lifting, love, terror, unimaginable terror.
Thank you
