The Nazi Officer's Wife: How One Jewish Woman Survived the Holocaust
Hoody avatar reviewed on + 52 more book reviews


This quite possibly the best book I have ever read. I gave it 5 stars and if I could have given it more I would have. The Nazi Officers Wife is a powerful story, told by the woman who lived it. She was a Jewish woman who grew up in Austria. She remained in Austria and Germany throughout the war and was able to survive through sheer luck and the kindness of others. Her story is heartbreaking and inspirational. You feel almost like your there with her while reading her words. If this book does not move you, you must be without a heart.
