Cilka was only 16 years old when she was taken to Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp, in 1942. The Commandant at Birkenau, Schwarzhuber, noticed her long beautiful hair, and forced her separation from the other women prisoners. Cilka did what she had to in order to survive Auschwitz. And yet after Russian soldiers liberated Auschwitz in 1945, Cilka was charged as a collaborator and sentenced to serve a 15-year sentence for 'sleeping with the enemy'. Once again, she found herself on a brutal train journey, crammed into a carriage with many desperate women and children.

This incredible memoir recounts - without bitterness or hatred - the horrors of war, the love between mother and daughter, and the strength and determination that helped a family overcome danger and tragedy.

Story
“If I survive.” This thought haunted Lena. Her loved ones were cruelly forced from her arms in the Warsaw Ghetto in Poland and perished in Treblinka Death Camp. This is a true story of Holocaust survival. In WW2 books, it is a searing story of human rights abuses and genocide. The story of Nazi Germany and the Jews is a story of anti-Semitism, Nazi concentration camps, gas chambers, and World War II.

Story
Hamburg, 1938. Fifteen-year-old Asta is hurrying home from school with her twin brother, Jurgen. The mood in the city is tense - synagogues have been smashed with sledgehammers, and Asta is too frightened to laugh as she used to. But when she and Jurgen are stopped in the street by a friend, her world implodes further. Her Jewish parents have been dragged into the streets by German soldiers, and if she and Jurgen return to their house, they will be taken, too.
Publisher's Summary
A story of heartbreak and survival by the stepsister of Anne Frank.
Eva was arrested by the Nazis on her 15 birthday and sent to Auschwitz. Her survival depended on endless strokes of luck, her own determination and the love and protection of her mother, Fritzi, who was deported with her.
When Auschwitz was liberated, Eva and Fritzi began the long journey home. They searched desperately for Eva's father and brother, from whom they had been separated. The news came some months later. Tragically, both men had been killed.
Before the war, in Amsterdam, Eva had become friendly with a young girl called Anne Frank. Though their fates were very different, Eva's life was set to be entwined with her friend's for ever more, after her mother, Fritzi, married Anne's father, Otto Frank, in 1953.
This is a searingly honest account of how an ordinary person survived the Holocaust. Eva's memories and descriptions are heartbreakingly clear; her account brings the horror as close as it can possibly be.
But this is also an exploration of what happened next, of Eva's struggle to live with herself after the war and to continue the work of her stepfather, Otto, ensuring that the legacy of Anne Frank is never forgotten.

captivating memoir from pre WWII to present day
This is a captivating personal memoir of a person about whom I previously had no knowledge, despite her having traveled the world for years as a speaker & working to educate about the Holocaust, with the goal of positive legacy. The narrator is excellent & I had to keep reminding myself it was not the author herself. As a child, Eva was a neighbor & buddy of the famous Jewish diarist, Anne Frank, who perished in a concentration camp during WWII. After the war, Anne's father, & Eva's mother, married. The memoir, covers way more than that particular aspect of this lady's story, from her ancestors up to its 2013 publication. The author is still living in England @ 90 years old.

Captivating and Timely for Today's Generation
I read this title on Audible for our book club selection and appreciated the fact that the author includes both historical context as well as emotional context. I had no trouble wanting to reach the end of the book as both the author and narrator left you wanting to hear more. I find this book very prevalent for today's generation. If we want the youth of today to prevent this from happening again, we must teach them regardless how painful the lesson, and we must not sugar coat it. This book would be a captivating read for both the young pre-teen and older generations as well. Well done on both the part of the author and the narrator.

This book is so enlightening of what happened after Otto Frank and how he carried on after Anne was murdered. In my opinion that is what happened during this dark time. Mass murder. If you love history and especially WWII a must read.

After Auschwitz
This was not expected to be an easy listen but it was worthwhile. There were many engaging and heartfelt memories along the way to a very creative and positive use of experience.
I found myself slightly depressed occasionally by the readers tone, which led to a jarring re-cognition that it was not the author. Something in the writing tells me the author has more lively manner, naturally.
