Heather Morris

From Heather Morris, the author of the multi-million copy bestseller The Tattooist of Auschwitz, comes a engrossing novel based on a riveting true story of love and resilience. Her beauty saved her--and condemned her. Cilka is just sixteen years old when she is taken to Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp in 1942, where the commandant immediately notices how beautiful she is. Forcibly separated from the other women prisoners, Cilka learns quickly that power, even unwillingly taken, equals survival. When the war is over and the camp is liberated, freedom is not granted to Cilka: She is charged as a collaborator for sleeping with the enemy and sent to a Siberian prison camp. But did she really have a choice? And where do the lines of morality lie for Cilka, who was sent to Auschwitz when she was still a child? In Siberia, Cilka faces challenges both new and horribly familiar, including the unwanted attention of the guards. But when she meets a kind female doctor, Cilka is taken under her wing and begins to tend to the ill in the camp, struggling to care for them under brutal conditions. Confronting death and terror daily, Cilka discovers a strength she never knew she had. And when she begins to tentatively form bonds and relationships in this harsh, new reality, Cilka finds that despite everything that has happened to her, there is room in her heart for love. From child to woman, from woman to healer, Cilka's journey illuminates the resilience of the human spirit--and the will we have to survive.

Tämä on Cibin, Magdan ja Livian tarina. Se särkee sydämesi, mutta heidän rohkeutensa ja rakkautensa täyttävät sinut toivolla.Pikkutyttöinä Cibi, Magda ja Livia lupasivat isälleen pysyä aina yhdessä, tapahtui mitä hyvänsä. Kun vuosia myöhemmin natsit lähettivät 15-vuotiaan Livian Auschwitziin, 19-vuotias Cibi seurasi pikkusiskoaan kuolemanleirille suojellakseen häntä - tai kohdatakseen kuoleman hänen kanssaan.Natsien noutaessa juutalaisväestöä leireille sisarkolmikon keskimmäinen, Magda, onnistui pakoilemaan jonkin aikaa piileskellen perheen naapurin vintillä tai läheisessä metsässä. Lopulta myös hänet otettiin kiinni ja vietiin Auschwitziin. Kun sisaret olivat jälleen yhdessä, he lupasivat toisilleen: he selviäisivät tästä elossa.Miljoonia kappaleita myyneiden Auschwitzin tatuoijan ja Cilkan tarinan kirjoittajan Heather Morrisin koskettava ja voimakas uutuusromaani perustuu kolmen siskoksen tositarinaan selviytymisestä Auschwitzista ja kuolemanmarssista.Uudessa-Seelannissa syntynyt Heather Morris on poikkeuksellisen menestynyt kirjailija, jonka intohimona ovat tarinat selviytymisestä, sisukkuudesta ja toivosta. Työskennellessään vuonna 2003 suuressa melbournelaisessa sairaalassa Heather tutustui iäkkääseen herraan, jolla ”saattaisi olla kertomisen arvoinen tarina”. Mies oli Lale Sokolov, ja tapaaminen muutti molempien elämän. Heatherin romaani Auschwitzin tatuoija pohjautuu Lalen elämäntarinaan, ja sitä sekä Cilkan tarinaa on myyty yli kahdeksan miljoonaa kappaletta. Vuonna 2020 Heather Morris julkaisi teoksen Tarinoita toivosta, jossa hän kertoo omasta tiestään Lale Sokolovin elämäntarinan kirjoittajaksi.”Olin Etelä-Afrikassa kirjani PR-kiertueella, kun tyttäreni otti yhteyttä ja kertoi saaneensa sähköpostia eräältä pariskunnalta. Mies oli matkustanut Livia-äitinsä luo Israeliin ja vienyt hänelle tuliaisiksi Auschwitzin tatuoijan, koska äiti ja tämän sisaret olivat holokaustin selviytyjiä. Heti kirjan nähtyään Livia sanoi: 'Siinä on varmaan Lalen ja Gitan tarina. Minä olin Birkenaussa yhtaikaa heidän kanssaan - ja Gita ja minä kävimme samaa koulua.' Sähköpostiviestin lähettäjä Oded Ravek kysyi, voisinko tulla Israeliin tapaamaan Liviaa ja hänen Magda-siskoaan. Cibi, siskoksista vanhin, ei surullista kyllä ole enää elossa.Mitä siinä saattoi tehdä? Nousin koneeseen, lensin Tel Aviviin, tapasin Livian ja Magdan ja kuulin heidän uskomattoman elämäntarinansa.” - Heather Morris

"Cilka oli rohkein ihminen, jonka olen koskaan tavannut."- Lale Sokolov, Auschwitzin tatuoijaCilka Klein on vasta kuusitoistavuotias, kun hänet viedään Auschwitz-Birkenaun tuhoamisleirille. Siellä Cilka päätyy komentaja Schwarzhuberin leikkikaluksi.

Siellä sekä uudet että tutut kauhut vainoavat häntä: nälkä, kylmä, kuolema, vartijoiden ja luottovankien lähentely. Lopulta hän ystävystyy leirin naislääkärin kanssa ja oppii hoitamaan sairaita vankeja kurjimmissa mahdollisissa olosuhteissa - ja havaitsee, että on kaikesta huolimatta onnistunut säilyttämään kyvyn rakastaa.Cilkan tarina perustuu Cilkan kanssa Auschwitzissa ja Siperiassa asuneiden selviytyjien haastatteluihin. Cilkan tarina on itsenäinen jatko-osa valtavan suosion saavuttaneelle Auschwitzin tatuoijalle. "Cilkan poikkeuksellinen rohkeus ja hänen päättäväisyytensä selvitä vastoin kaikkea todennäköisyyttä jäävät lukijan mieleen pitkäksi aikaa." - Sunday Express"Sydäntäsärkevä tarina voimasta uskomattomien haasteiden keskellä." - Woman's Weekly"Se, mitä Cilka joutui kestämään, särkee lukijan sydämen ja herättää ihmetyksen. Todellinen selviytyjä!" - The Sun DailyAuschwitzin tatuoijasta sanottua:“Muistuttaa niistä historian pimeistä hetkistä, joiden ei toivoisi missään nimessä toistuvan.”- Helsingin Sanomat "Upea ja koskettava kirja."- Ilta-Sanomat“Morris on tallentanut Sokolovin selviytymistarinan niin kauniisti, että sen lukeminen on nautinto.”- Apu

Cilkas skjønnhet reddet livet hennes - men ble også hennes skjebne. Cilka Klein var bare 16 år da hun i 1942 ble sendt til Auschwitz. Hun var så vakker at hun ble tatt til side, og leirkommandanten brukte henne til sine private behov. Cilka overlevde Auschwitz, men da russerne frigjorde leiren i 1945 ble hun dømt for å ha samarbeidet med den tyske fienden. På nytt ble hun stuet sammen med desperate kvinner og barn. Denne gangen var målet Sibir. Cilka var 18 år da hun havnet i den brutale Gulag-leiren i det øde Sibir. I denne ubeskrivelig mørke tilværelsen, i enda et terrorregime, finner Cilka en utrolig styrke i seg selv. Hun er sterk nok til å hjelpe andre i leiren og til selv å komme gjennom enda et helvete. Dette er fortsettelsen på historien fra «Tatovøren i Auschwitz», og fortellingen er basert på virkelige hendelser.
