Acerca de esta escucha

Performed by Anna Cordell and Dov Forman featuring a foreword written and read by Charles HRH The Prince of Wales and dedication written and read by Lily Ebert.

“Utterly compelling, heartbreaking, truthful and yet redemptive . . . a testimony of irrepressible spirit and an unforgettable family chronicle. I couldn't stop reading it.”—Simon Sebag Montefiore

In this life-affirming intergenerational memoir, Lily Ebert, a Holocaust survivor, and her great-grandson, Dov Forman, come together to share her story—an unforgettable tale of resilience and resistance.

On Yom Kippur, 1944, fighting to stay alive as a prisoner in Auschwitz, Lily Ebert made a promise to herself. She would survive the hell she was in and tell the world her story, for everyone who couldn’t. Now, at ninety-eight, this remarkable woman—and TikTok sensation, thanks to the help of her eighteen-year-old great-grandson—fulfills that vow, relaying the details of her harrowing experiences with candor, charm, and an overflowing heart.

In these pages, she writes movingly about her happy childhood in Hungary, the death of her mother and two youngest siblings on their arrival at Auschwitz, and her determination to keep her two other sisters safe. She describes the inhumanity of the camp and the small acts of defiance that gave her strength. Lily lost so much, but she built a new life for herself and her family, first in Israel and then in London.

Dov knows that it is up to younger people like him to keep Lily’s promise. He and Lily bridge the generation gap to share her experience, reminding us of the joy that accompanies the solemn responsibility of keeping the past—and our stories—alive.

Wow what a story

We have all heard of the Holocaust but hearing Lily's story in her own words brought it to life the things she went through no one should ever have to. I is inspirational to see the spirit she has after all she has been through.

A story of a life well lived

Lily had her sister with her which gives you the feeling she had to survive. She made a promise to share her story and well into her 90’s she is still doing just that. The was she told the story you could feel the horror but it was not graphic. This is a story even children can listen to. We must never forget the holocaust happened and never repeat it.

Wonderful book

Lily is a true inspiration. I love the way she told her story. Her grandson Dov is doing a great job of carrying on her legacy.

heart wrenching

this book takes you not only thru the Holocaust but after wards and the difficulty that Jews faced. I knew about most of the things talked about in this book but the after struges I did not and I don't think I knew anything about the death marches. Lilly is an amazing person for sharing her story and ensuring that no one forgets.

Very moving and beautifully written

This book should be required reading for all high school students. Lily paints a vivid picture of life in the concentration camp and the difficult days of recovery after the war. I learned about Lily and Dov after October 7th 2023 and I have so much respect for this amazing woman. Thank you, Dov, for encouraging her to share her story on the internet and for helping her to navigate through it. Bravo, Lily!!! Bravo! Yours has been and continues to be a life very well lived. 💙🤍💙
