ONLY HOPE A Survivor's Stories of the Holocaust

Three voices evocatively describe life in a Polish ghetto and in Auschwitz during WWII. Christine Williams narrates the majority of the audiobook, skillfully juggling the diverse timeframes and details of the memoir published in print. Felicia Lubliner's son, Irving, incorporates excerpts of 1960s recordings of programs she gave about her horrific experiences and clarifies his mother's words. Her vivid memories keep listeners riveted as she recounts such memories as each prisoner having to control how much they ate from a communal bowl and an artist saving precious bread to create her brilliant sculptures. Lubliner's words, in her own voice and through Williams's, are a testament to her resilience after losing her parents and nine siblings. S.G.B. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2024]
