Book Synopsis

"The Choice" by Dr. Edith Eva Eger is a powerful memoir that tells the inspiring story of her survival during the Holocaust and her subsequent journey towards healing and freedom. With unwavering resilience, Dr. Eger shares her experiences of unimaginable suffering in Auschwitz, where she witnessed the darkest aspects of humanity.

Amidst the horrors of the concentration camp, Dr. Eger's will to survive kept her going. Encountering the infamous Dr. Josef Mengele, who selected her for a horrifying experiment, she faced a pivotal moment that would come to define her life. In that moment, she made a choice – to embrace her inner strength and reclaim her life.

After the war, Dr. Eger's journey continued as she trained as a psychologist, eventually specializing in trauma therapy. Drawing from her personal experiences, she offers profound insights into the nature of trauma, resilience, and the power of forgiveness. Through her work, she empowers others to confront their pain and transform it into strength and compassion.

With honesty and grace, she explores the importance of embracing our past, no matter how painful, in order to move forward and create a fulfilling, purposeful life.

"The Choice" is a deeply moving memoir that serves as a reminder of the strength of the human spirit and the power of choice. Dr. Eger's story will inspire readers to confront their own traumas, embrace their resilience, and find freedom in the act of choosing love and forgiveness.
