This is my story, from a child survivor's perspective, how I escaped concentration camps, executions squads and the gas chambers. Orphaned at 13 years of age, I had a strong will and kept my body as strong as I could. Now that I am 80 years old, writing these experiences has helped me to overcome the nightmare I lived through and it also provides a living history for my readers.

Esfir (Esther) Kaplan Lupyan’s normal childhood was cruelly aborted by World War II when she had barely turned five-years-old and was away at summer camp for young children. She, her family, and the rest of the Jews, forced by the Nazis into the lethal trap of Minsk Ghetto, had to survive through indescribable suffering. In Never Erased in My Mind, she shares the story of a young Jewish girl in Belarus, encompassing sixty years of Soviet history, including the horrors of Stalinism, World War II, the Holocaust, and post-Stalin anti-Semitism. Her father was arrested by the KGB when she was only three weeks old. The family didn’t know his fate, nor did he know theirs. This memoir chronicles how she and her mother survived the Minsk Ghetto and certain death, miraculously escaping on the last day of the ghetto’s existence to the forest, where they hid for nine months. Her closest relatives all perished, including her grandparents, 13-year-old brother, and 22-year-old uncle. After the war, Esfir and her mother reunited with her father and joined him in exile in the Vorkuta Gulag in the Far North above the Arctic Circle. Later, after studying chemical engineering in Leningrad, she and her family became “refuseniks,” denied permission to leave the Soviet Union. A story of survival, Never Erased in My Mind serves as a reminder to heed the lessons of the Holocaust, that it should never happen again.

Alexander Rucki is the child of a Jewish Holocaust survivor, and his book is both a reminder of mans breathtaking inhumanity to man and the absolute miracle of survival. These long-term effects are seen in hindsight over sixty years later. One can only begin to imagine what it wouldve been like to be sixteen and the sole survivor of a Nazi death camp. Its been done beforeDiary of Anne Frank and Schindlers List among the two most popularbut this tragedy is constantly revisited, and I suspect this story is now ripe for the retelling. Alexanders mother not only survived Auschwitzher brother, sister; and parents did notbut she married, bore two sons, and moved to a new continent with a new language, far away from the hell of Europe.

'A masterpiece and deeply moving' - Alain de Botton 'A wonderful piece of work' - Lynn Barber "...something really to behold, a substantial project of some real depth and authority. By flicking through the pages you can sense the amount of research, patience and hard work that has been invested. The portraits, as always with Borden are simple, effective and very telling." - Martin Parr Survivor is a unique and powerful testimony of what it is to live with memories of the Holocaust. Over the course of five years, acclaimed photographer Harry Borden has travelled the globe photographing survivors of the Holocaust. The people featured vary in age, gender and nationality, but are all tied together by their experience and survival of one of the darkest moments in human history. Each photograph is accompanied by a handwritten note from the sitter, ranging from poems, to memories, to hopes for the future, creating a strong sense of intimacy between sitter and reader. At the end of the book is a section providing more information about the person in each portrait, and about how and what they survived, together with the historical context of the events they lived through. Thought-provoking and touching, this book conveys the dignity and humanity of each subject's character.
