Kurzbiographie
Corrie ten Boom was born on 15 April 1892 to a working-class family in Amsterdam, Netherlands, near Haarlem. Named after her mother, Cornelia, but known as Corrie all her life, she was the youngest child of Casper ten Boom, a jeweler and watchmaker. Her father was fascinated by the craft of watchmaking and often became so engrossed in his work that he forgot to charge customers for his services. Corrie had three older siblings: Betsie, Willem, and Nollie. Her three maternal aunts, Tante Bep, Tante Jans, and Tante Anna, lived with the family.

She trained to be a watchmaker herself, and in 1922, she became the first woman to be licensed as a watchmaker in The Netherlands. Over the next decade, in addition to working in her father's shop, she established a youth club for teenage girls, which provided religious instruction and classes in the performing arts, sewing, and handicrafts. She and her family were Calvinist Christians in the Dutch Reformed Church, and their faith inspired them to serve their society, which they did by offering shelter, food and money to those who were in need.

Rezensionen

Corrie ten Boom erzählt, wie sie im zweiten Weltkrieg alles daran setzte, um Juden aus ihrer Stadt zu schützen und letztendlich durch ihre Untergrund-Arbeit selbst gefangen genommen wurde. Sehr bewegend ist, wie sie mit ihrem unerschütterlichen, christlichen Glauben die grausamsten Lebensumstände erträgt.
