{"product_id":"0857526839","title":"Last Stop Auschwitz: My story of survival from within the camp","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eEddy de Wind, a Dutch doctor and psychiatrist, was shipped to Auschwitz with his wife Friedel, whom he had met while volunteering in the Westerbork labour camp. On arrival, they made it through the brutal selection process and were put to work in the medical barracks. In their new life, each day, each hour became a battle for survival.\u003cbr\u003eFor De Wind, this meant negotiating the volatile guards. For Friedel, it meant avoiding the inevitable fate of Joseph Mengele's medical experiments. Despite all this, love prevailed. Passing notes through the fence, sometimes stealing a brief embrace, Friedel and De Wind made it through.\u003cbr\u003eAs the last Nazis fled at the end of the war, De Wind hid himself in an abandoned barracks and began to write with furious energy about his experiences at Auschwitz. The result is an extraordinary account of life as a prisoner, a near real-time record of the daily struggle, stress and horror, but also of the flickering moments of joy De Wind and Friedel found in each other. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLast Stop Auschwitz\u003c\/i\u003e is a document of the best and the worst of humanity, a reminder of what we as humans were - and are - capable of.
