The tattoo artist from Auschwitz

A story of humanity, courage, love, and hope. In 1942, Lale Sokolov was deported to Auschwitz. His task was to tattoo prisoner numbers on the forearms of his fellow inmates, those numbers that would later become some of the most haunting reminders against forgetting. He used his unique position to fight against the inhumanity of the camp, saving many lives. Then, one day, he tattooed the arm of a young girl—and fell in love with Gita at first sight. A love story began, culminating in the incredible: they both survived. Heather Morris powerfully recounts the moving, true story of Lale and Gita, who never lost their faith in courage, love, and humanity.
