Jill Mansell______The Tattooist of Auschwitz is a #3 Sunday Times bestseller from 5 May 2024 Notes MOVED TO OCTOBER 2018 (11/06/18 - SS) Author Biography Born in New Zealand, Heather Morris is passionate about stories of survival, resilience and hope. In 2003, while working in a large public hospital in Melbourne, Heather was introduced to an elderly gentleman who might just have a story worth telling. The day she met Lale Sokolov changed both their lives. Lales story formed the basis for The Tattooist of Auschwitz and the follow-up novel, Cilkas Journey. In 2021 she published the phenomenal conclusion to the Tattooist trilogy, Three Sisters, after being asked to tell the story of three Holocaust survivors who knew Lale from their time in Auschwitz-Birkenau. Together, her novels have sold more than 16 million copies worldwide. Her exceptional new novel, Sisters Under the Rising Sun, was published in 2023 bringing another heart-wrenching true story to life with experiences of women in Japanese POW camps, how they found bravery in sisterhood and the hope to survive in music. Review a sincere...moving attempt to speak the unspeakable * The Sunday Times *What an extraordinary and important book this is. We need as many memories of the Holocaust as we can retain, and this is a moving and ultimately uplifting story of love, loyalties and friendship amidst the horrors of war. Im so glad Lale and Gita were eventually able to live long and happy lives together, and thankful that Heather Morris was moved to record their incredible story. Its a triumph * Jill Mansell *Extraordinary - moving, confronting and uplifting . . . a story about the extremes of human behaviour: calculated brutality alongside impulsive and selfless acts of love. I recommend it unreservedly * Graeme Simsion, author of The Rosie Project *Based on the true story of Lale Sokolov, who is forced to tattoo numbers on his fellow concentration camp detainees arms. * The Bookseller *Nothing that I could possibly write here would be eloquent enough to convey to you how powerful and moving this book was. I could go on for pages telling you how well this is written, nothing is overdramatized...she just tell this tale that is at its bare bones a love story. I cried entire buckets of tears. Finally I will use the words of Lale "If you wake up in the morning, it is a good day" that it is. That it is * Netgalley Reviewer * Promotional Soon to be a major TV adaptation from Sky Atlantic starring Harvey Keitel, Melanie Lynskey, Jonah Hauer-King, Anna Próchniak, and Jonas Nay Details ISBN1785763679 Author Heather Morris Year 2018 ISBN-10 1785763679 ISBN-13 9781785763670 Media Book Format Paperback Publisher Zaffre Pages 352 UK Release Date 2018-10-04 Imprint Zaffre Place of Publication London Country of Publication United Kingdom AU Release Date 2018-10-04 NZ Release Date 2018-10-04 Publication Date 2018-10-04 DEWEY 823.92 Subtitle Now a major Sky TV series We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
