Sinopsis	THE TATTOOIST OF AUSCHWITZ - THE TATTOOIST OF AUSCHWITZ 1 1 New York Times Bestseller and 1 International Bestseller This beautiful, illuminating tale of hope and courage is based on interviews that were conducted with Holocaust survivor and Auschwitz-Birkenau tattooist Ludwig Lale Sokolov-an unforgettable love story in the midst of atrocity. "The Tattooist of Auschwitz is an extraordinary document, a story about the extremes of human behavior existing side by side: calculated brutality alongside impulsive and selfless acts of love. I find it hard to imagine anyone who would not be drawn in, confronted and moved. I would recommend it unreservedly to anyone, whether they'd read a hundred Holocaust stories or none."-Graeme Simsion, internationally-bestselling author of The Rosie Project In April 1942, Lale Sokolov, a Slovakian Jew, is forcibly transported to the concentration camps at Auschwitz-Birkenau. When his captors discover that he speaks several languages, he is put to work as a Tätowierer the German word for tattooist , tasked with permanently marking his fellow prisoners. Imprisoned for over two and a half years, Lale witnesses horrific atrocities and barbarism-but also incredible acts of bravery and compassion. Risking his own life, he uses his privileged position to exchange jewels and money from murdered Jews for food to keep his fellow prisoners alive. One day in July 1942, Lale, prisoner 32407, comforts a trembling young woman waiting in line to have the number 34902 tattooed onto her arm. Her name is Gita, and in that first encounter, Lale vows to somehow survive the camp and marry her. A vivid, harrowing, and ultimately hopeful re-creation of Lale Sokolov's experiences as the man who tattooed the arms of thousands of prisoners with what would become one of the most potent symbols of the Holocaust, The Tattooist of Auschwitz is also a testament to the endurance of love and humanity under the darkest possible conditions. MORRIS HEATHER Es una guionista neozelandesa residente en Australia. Estudió trabajo social y guion cinematográfico, trabajó como guionista, y uno de sus textos fue seleccionado por la Academia. En 2003, de forma casual, entró en contacto con Lale Sokolov, un octogenario que había sido prisionero en Auschwitz y que, tras haber fundado una familia y un negocio en Australia, quería contar su experiencia como tatuador y prisionero en el campo de concentración y cómo allí conoció al amor de su vida. De la historia de Lale y Gita nació El tatuador de Auschwitz, uno de los mayores fenómenos editoriales del año 2018 en todo el mundo, que ha conmovido y emocionado a millones de lectores en más de cincuenta países. Del interés que despertó uno de los personajes, Cilka Klein, y de la pasión investigadora de Heather, surgió El viaje de Cilka. Las tres hermanas es su tercera novela.
