Description
Auschwitz, 1943, was a place of unimaginable suffering, yet it was also a time of hope and resilience. For Ana Kaminski, a young midwife, the iron gates of the camp held a different significance. As she entered the maternity hut, Ana's fingers instinctively traced the black tattoo on a tiny baby's thigh, a symbol of the family torn apart by war. Ana's determination to save lives was matched only by her compassion for those who had lost everything. When two guards seized a healthy baby from its mother, Ana's resolve hardened. She and her assistant, Ester, began secretly tattooing babies with their mother's numbers, praying that one day they might be reunited. But as the war raged on, Ana's own fate hung in the balance. This heart-wrenching novel is a testament to the human spirit's capacity for courage and kindness in the face of unimaginable adversity.
