“A moving and important book, a conversation between two immigrants who started their new lives in London. Lili, as one of the last remaining eyewitnesses of Shoah, reveals the story of her life to Anna, talks about her Jewish family, relays her memories, also the tragic ones and shares startling truths about war, at the same time giving us hope and a message for the future. Highly recommended.”

—Wioletta Greg, author of Swallowing Mercury longlisted for the Man Booker International 2017 and Finite Formulae & Theories of Chance shortlisted for the Griffin Poetry Prize 2015

"Lili Pohlmann is the most remarkable person I have ever met. Her story is at once a testament to humanity and a profound and timely warning of what can happen to us all when that humanity is denied by political leaders. It should be required reading in these troubled times. I am proud to call her a friend.”
