An international bestseller, this powerful memoir by a ninety-eight-year-old Jewish Resistance fighter and Ravensbrck concentration camp survivor shows us how to find hope in hopelessness and light in the darkness (Edith Eger, author of The Choice and The Gift).

Selma van de Perre was seventeen when World War II began. She lived with her parents, two older brothers, and a younger sister in Amsterdam, and until then, being Jewish in the Netherlands had not presented much of an issue. But by 1941 it had become a matter of life or death. On several occasions, Selma barely avoided being rounded up by the Nazis. While her father was summoned to a work camp and eventually hospitalized in a Dutch transition camp, her mother and sister went into hidinguntil they were betrayed in June 1943 and sent to Auschwitz. In an act of defiance and with nowhere else to turn, Selma took on an assumed identity, dyed her hair blond, and joined the Resistance movement, using the pseudonym Margareta van der Kuit. For two years Marga risked it all. Using a fake ID, and passing as non-Jewish, she traveled around the country and even to Nazi headquarters in Paris, sharing information and delivering papersdoing, as she later explained, what had to be done.

But in July 1944 her luck ran out. She was transported to Ravensbrck womens concentration camp as a political prisoner. Without knowing the fate of her familyher father died in Auschwitz, and her mother and sister were killed in SobiborSelma survived by using her alias, pretending to be someone else. It was only after the war ended that she could reclaim her identity and dared to say once again: My name is Selma.

We were ordinary people plunged into extraordinary circumstances, Selma writes. Full of hope and courage, this is her story in her own words.
