A unique holocaust story A true and moving story of a father and son and their bond through the most horrible event of our lifetime. It's a unique story and every word of it is true. Told with brutal honesty and emotion, you will come to ask yourself how they endured what they did. Was it because they were together? Read it and you decide. Beautiful story of one of the millions of families caught up in the horror of the nazis' murderous rampage during WWII. Gustav Kleinmann was a good husband, father of 4, and a kind man. He loved and fought for Austria, twice suffering injuries. But that didn't help when the nazis came for him and his oldest son Fritz. His wife, Tini expended much effort trying to get her children out of the country, and managed to send the oldest, Edith to England, and later her youngest to the US. Gustav and Fritz spent nearly 6 years in multiple concentration camps as slave labor to the nazi machine of war. Together with their wits and much love.they were able to support each other despite back-breaking work, beatings, starvation, cold, and disease. Gustav kept a small notebook of significant events and his feelings which would years later become the foundation of The Boy Who Followed His Father into Auschwitz. Reading about Gustav's naive optimism, and the fact that father and son were able to remain together for so long is captivating. Book should be read to learn how this one family fared. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

In 1939, Gustav Kleinmann, a Jewish upholster from Vienna, and his sixteen-year-old son Fritz are arrested by the Gestapo and sent to Germany. Imprisoned in the Buchenwald concentration camp, they miraculously survive the Nazis' murderous brutality. Then Gustav learns he is being sent to Auschwitzâ??and certain death. For Fritz, letting his father go is unthinkable. Desperate to remain together, Fritz makes an incredible choice: he insists he must go too. To the Nazis, one death camp is the same as another, and so the boy is allowed to follow. Throughout the six years of horror they witness and immeasurable suffering they endure as victims of the camps, one constant keeps them alive: their love and hope for the future. Based on the secret diary that Gustav kept as well as meticulous archival research and interviews with members of the Kleinmann family, including Fritz's younger brother Kurt, sent to the United States at age eleven to escape the war, The Boy Who Followed His Father into Auschwitz is Gustav and Fritz's storyâ??an extraordinary account of courage, loyalty, survival, and love that is unforge Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
