Elias Feinzilberg is a young man living in Lodz, Poland, when he is separated from his family as the Nazis invade his country at the start of World War II. At this moment, his life expectancy is at best a few months. Against all odds, surviving the torment, deprivation, and degradation of nine concentration camps, he encounters Esther. Their meeting reinforces a promise he made to his father, to survive. This is a story about the human spirit, love, and triumph. It is particularly relevant in today's environment of rising antisemitism and Holocaust denial
