| Summary: | "When Nazi forces entered Krakâow, Poland, in 1939, unexpected and unresisted, Josef Lewkowicz's life became a nightmare overnight ashe and his family were rounded up and sent to concentration camps across German-occupied territory. It wasn't long before Josef found himself face-to-face with SS kommandant Amon Goeth, whose brutality was made infamous by the film Schindler's List. As Josef struggled tosurvive the violence, horror, and degradations of one prison camp after another--his journey eventually spanning continents and taking him to the limits of human endurance--he was kept alive only by his faith and his profound sense of justice. A harrowing but ultimately uplifting glimpse into a pivotal moment in history, The Survivor is the story of one man's survival and pursuit of justice against all odds. The story of resilience and tenacity, and a desire for revenge redirected as a yearning to build a better future for humanity."-- |
