Description
Otto Rosenberg's memoir is a deeply affecting account of his survival in the Roma and Sinti Holocaust. At the age of 9, he and his family were detained, and their lives were forever changed. As the Nazis tore Sinti and Roma families from their homes, Otto was eventually sent to Auschwitz, where he endured unimaginable violence and suffering. Despite being driven to the brink of death by illness, he found the strength to join an armed revolt of prisoners and ultimately survived. This haunting account shares Otto's remarkable story with simplicity and honesty. It is a powerful reminder of the often-overlooked suffering of Sinti and Roma people during Nazi Germany. With remarkable resilience, Otto recounts his experiences in Auschwitz, Buchenwald, and Bergen-Belsen, offering a unique perspective on one of the darkest periods in human history. A Gypsy in Auschwitz is a deeply moving and thought-provoking memoir that sheds light on a forgotten chapter of the Holocaust.
