The Autobiography of a Young Woman Who Survived the Horrors of the Nazi Death Camps. Survival is an autobiography in which the author relates her experiences and her struggle to survive during her captivity as a young; 18-year-old girl in the three German concentration camps: Auschwitz; Bremen; and Bergen Belsen. Being of Jewish descent she had been deported with her family and in the camps encountered the danger and the probability of being killed one way or another on a daily basis. She also depicts the senseless deaths of her fellow prisoners. The book gives an insight into the author's childhood and adolescent years; where the concept of anything like this happening was beyond belief. The reader finds out about her family background and the historical events that took place in her native city in Romania during that time. The political changes which occurred during World War II played a crucial role in her destiny and the fate of the Jewish people. Magda also conveys how she coped with the grief and pain of losing so many members of her family; including her father; in the Holocaust. Then she speaks about her gradual recovery from the wounds of the Holocaust and her ultimate reunion with her mother. Magda's poetry is included in the book.

The Deeper Truth is a fitting title. The writing is excellent; it flows from one subject to the next beautifully; and there is so much information packed neatly and tightly in. The first four chapters are absolutely brilliant. It is the kind of book you read over and over again. I have just started reading it for the second time around and I am finding things I didn't catch the first time. Highly recommended to alternative thinkers; Masons; as well as mainstream philosophers and theologians.5 of 6 people found the following review helpful.
