Cilka's Journey (ADULT)

This continues Cilka's story from the Tattooist of Auschwitz, Cilka's Journey continues after the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau only she isn't liberated she is charged as a collaborator and sent to a Siberian gulag.  Now she is might be lucky again and taken under the wing of one of camps doctors and is asked to help in the hospital but can she do it, to save her life?
This book is fiction, but it is so easy to see it really happening to some of the women of that era, and how horrible it must have been for them.  This book is such a powerful book to tell what happened to this one woman after the supposed liberation, and how she had to keep her hope alive even longer when it would have been so much easier to just give up.  This is a not to be missed book of the year, and would also make a great book club book as well.  It is one of those books you can not say enough about as Cilka is one of the strongest women I know, she is a hero.
