Opis

Haftling Scheunemann KZ Haftling - Concentration Camp Prisoner Michael Scheunemann was a naive young Jewish man living and working as a jeweller in the Kazimierz district of Krakow just before the fall of Poland in 1939. Unwilling to leave with his family when he had the chance, he ended up like so many others, in the Krakow Ghetto until 1941. With the help of the Polish underground he escapes, leaving behind his sweetheart, and spends over a year in hiding before being caught and transported to Auschwitz in 1943. His naivety, turned by necessity to guile and cunning, helps him survive the horrors of Auschwitz until, with the Russians fast approaching, he was sent on the Death March leading to Bergen-Belsen in 1945. This is a story of survival, and Michael finds out his sweetheart Sarah was also incarcerated in Auschwitz and Belsen while he was there.
