She would survive the hell she was in and tell the world her story, for everyone who couldn’t. Now, at ninety-eight, this remarkable woman―and TikTok sensation, thanks to the help of her eighteen-year-old great-grandson―fulfills that vow, relaying the details of her harrowing experiences with candor, charm, and an overflowing heart.\nIn these pages, she writes movingly about her happy childhood in Hungary, the death of her mother and two youngest siblings on their arrival at Auschwitz, and her determination to keep her two other sisters safe. She describes the inhumanity of the camp and the small acts of defiance that gave her strength in this true story of survival. Lily lost so much, but she built a new life for herself and her family, first in Israel and then in London.\nDov knows that it is up to younger people like him to keep Lily’s promise.
