Aprašymas

My Story, My Voice was written by Femma Mahdessian Slap, a Dutch Jewish Holocaust survivor who died in 2020. English was her second language. The short stories contained in this book came from her heart. She didn't want them published, initially. She didn't really want to discuss the Holocaust. However, as things may have it, through a memoir writing class that she enrolled in many years ago, her writings became a kind of catharsis. A healing of sorts. A diary, looking backwards.

These stories are a necessary reminder of what we humans are capable of-both in our darkest selves and in our most hopeful selves. She undertook this work bravely, and in so doing, educated, inspired and moves us to a deeper understanding of the holocaust.

This book will stand powerfully to make sure we do not forget.

All proceeds from the sale of this book will be sent to The Bergen-Belsen Memorial.
