Product Description

Product Description

Stephen “Pista” Nasser was thirteen years old when the Nazis whisked him and his family away from their home in Hungary to Auschwitz. His memories of that terrifying experience are still vivid, and his love for his brother Andris still
brings a husky tone to his voice when he remembers the terrible ordeal they endured together. Stephen’s account of the Holocaust, told in the refreshingly direct and optimistic language of a young boy, will help every reader to understand that the Holocaust was real, and that, if you have enough love, determination, and will power, there is always a better tomorrow!

A Must Read 2 Oct 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
I have just finished reading Mr. Nasser's book, and it has left me in awe of the man for what he endured and overcame during and after the horrific years of Nazi rule in Europe.
Because of the subject matter, and the story like way it has been conveyed, some of the pages were very difficult to read. Other pages were impossible not to read. It is a story of impossible hope, insurmountable suffering, and, ultimately, the power of love.
I have read many holocaust books, though none have touched me quite in the way this tale has. In fact I would suggest this book should be on the curriculum of every school.
Mr. Nasser, I know that many like you did not survive the camps, but I'm glad you did to bring us all your gift of this book, which is, quite simply, unforgettable.

A harrowing tail 10 Mar 2008
Format:Paperback
Having attended a wedding near Seeshaupt (Bavaria), I came across this biography of the early years of Stephen Nasser during the Nazi era. Most of his story took place in a forced labour camp east of Munich. However, towards the end of the Nazi period, a large group of surviving inmates were transported by train to....well, that was not at all clear and depended on the progress of the Allied troops in that area. Another one of these rogue trains to "anywhere". This group's train came to a halt at Seeshaupt station. We came across the Memorial near the station, for those who survived and the 100 or so who arrived dead.
I'll quote from just one episode described in the book. Stephen, on a starvation ration and having been worked well beyond his ability for week, had just been rescued out of the arms of an SS-man by an engineer. The SS-man was about to throw him down a funnel which led through the blades of a cement grinder, and to certain death. He managed to say "Danke schoen" (Thank you). The engineer looked at him, 'offering no reply but a nod. The mere look in his eyes seems to say it all, though, "I'm ashamed of the German army, the SS, and the whole so-called human race." '
His determination to live on being the sole survivor of his family, is remarkable. Humanity should (have) learn(ed) from this cautionary tale.

A story of survival in the death camps created by the Nazi's and the sheer will to live that the human spirit has despite terrible, unimaginable horror. At times you think that things just can't get worse - but then they do. The way that inmates were dehumanised comes accross very clearly in this story.

Dont fear the nightmares, Pista; theyre part of your healing process, and thus necessary. Use the daylight hours to analyze them, write about them, and help you lay your demons to rest. &quote;
