Title: This "memoir" is a bit of a stretch
Review: This book is like the other several hundred survivor stories out there. All those stories inspire hope and help us believe in the goodness of humanity, but this book is a large stretch of the imagination. Unlike the Diary of Anne Frank, which is a published diary and can easily have all the details and such that come along with an experience that she had during WWII, this book is relying on memory. And I admit that experiences like that burn themselves into your memory, but there is too much detail in this book for it all to be true. Add this to the fact that this is a rather boring account, I wouldn't recommend this book for anyone except WWII buffs.
