Dear Heather. I just finished reading your book. Lale’s story. My parents came from Bratislava and my mother,grandmother, grandfather and uncle were deported to Auschwitz in 1943. My grandfather murdered the day they arrived. The others survived and certainly would have known Lale and probably Gita. My mother never spoke of her experiences but she was 16 when deported. They made it back to Bratislava and in 1949 my mother,father and I came to Sydney. Lottie Weiss and my grandmother were friends. So you can understand how moved I am by your book. Thank you for writing so beautifully. Kathy Bell

I’ve just finished reading this book. It has sat unread on my “to read “ list for a while. Why did I wait?! I felt totally transported to that time. I empathised, laughed , felt their fear and cried like a baby. I read it from cover to cover in one go. Their story, their life ,their plight for survival, their families and the friends they encountered on this journey to hell and back has left an indelible mark on me. Thank you for writing this. Thank you Lale and Gita. I am now awaiting Cilka’s story.

I've just finished your book Heather. I was obviously aware of the horrors that took place during that time, prior to reading your powerful recount from Lale. However, i remain heart broken that Human Kind could be and still is so barbaric, Lale & Gita were such strong people bound by their love for one another, a lesson for all of us. Thank you for sharing this with us written in such an eloquent and truthful way, I'm sure Lale & Gita would be so proud of how you delivered their truth. Best wishes Caz

@@7210690 It's a book based off of the stories of this old man who was quite a character and a story teller himself. We all kind of just realize that she had to piece Lale's stories together. It sounds like you were looking for more of a history type book but that's not what she wrote. I get what you're looking for because I like those types of books too, but this was more of a written version of sitting with this old man and listening to him talk.

@@jennakeliikuli1694 I don’t question Lale Sokolov was ‘old man’ and a ‘storyteller’ and Heather’s Morris book is not a history book type. My point is, she deformed the history of German death camps and their extermination system, however, I agree she did it unwillingly. Sokolov could tell her stories but she should place them in the historical context to give readers a true picture of what has happened. I do understand Heather is not a historian and she does not know German, Yiddish or Polish but you know there are some other publications she may read.
