An amazing story from an unbelievably strong woman. Her positive attitude is remarkable. Her whole life journey and self discovery was amazing. Loved also reading about the patient she saw and how she was healing them and the challenges they were facing. Definitely had me doing some self reflection. Love the book so much bought her other book. ( ) There's quite a bit I don't agree or like about this author and while I anticipated a different angle, perhaps more motivational in nature- the tale nonetheless resonates with profound significance. This gripping narrative delves into the harrowing experiences of a survivor, evoking raw emotions that left me "ugly crying" throughout the initial chapters. As I turned the pages, I found myself overwhelmed by the sheer intensity of Edith's journey and the atrocities she endured. The people she remembered and how she remembered them. "We have a choice. To pay attention to what we've lost or pay attention to what we still have" "Maybe going forward means circling back" "What do we unconsciously teach our children?" "The people we loved or relied on disappeared or let us down. He needed to be held and I held him" "You can avenge the past or enrich the future" "To forgive is to grieve for what happened, for what didn't happen, and to give up the need for a different past. To accept life as it was and as it is" "Find the bigot in you" "Arbeit macht frei but that work doesn't set you free. I was free and did the work I needed to do. The inner work sets you free" "What do you want? Who wants it? What are you going to do about it? When?" "Pediatrician and psychoanalyst DW Winnicott has said "It is a joy to be hidden but a disaster not to be found"" A poignant memoir by an incredible woman. Yes, it's another devastating book about this horrific time in the not so distant history of the world, yet it's immensely readable thanks to Dr. Eger's style of writing. She'll take you to the depths of humanity and bring you back while you examine your own inner strengths. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

HTML:A New York Times Bestseller "I'll be forever changed by Dr. Eger's story...The Choice is a reminder of what courage looks like in the worst of times and that we all have the ability to pay attention to what we've lost, or to pay attention to what we still have."â??Oprah "Dr. Eger's life reveals our capacity to transcend even the greatest of horrors and to use that suffering for the benefit of others. She has found true freedom and forgiveness and shows us how we can as well." â??Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate "Dr. Edith Eva Eger is my kind of hero. She survived unspeakable horrors and brutality; but rather than let her painful past destroy her, she chose to transform it into a powerful giftâ??one she uses to help others heal." â??Jeannette Walls, New York Times bestselling author of The Glass Castle Winner of the National Jewish Book Award and Christopher Award At the age of sixteen, Edith Eger was sent to Auschwitz. Hours after her parents were killed, Nazi officer Dr. Josef Mengele, forced Edie to dance for his amusement and her survival. Edie was pulled from a pile of corpses when the American troops liberated the camps in 1945. Edie spent decades struggling with flashbacks and survivor's guilt, determined to stay silent and hide from the past. Thirty-five years after the war ended, she returned to Auschwitz and was finally able to fully heal and forgive the one person she'd been unable to forgiveâ??herself. Edie weaves her remarkable personal journey with the moving stories of those she has helped heal. She explores how we can be imprisoned in our own minds and shows us how to find the key to freedom.
