About this listen

All but My Life tells the haunting story of Gerda Weissman Klein’s experience under the Nazi regime. Taken from her home in Bielitz, Poland, and sent to German labor camps, Gerda survived and was liberated by American troops. In her memoir, Klein takes audiences on an alarming journey from the comforts of life in Poland to the horrifying concentration camps, reminding readers of the horrific destruction and prejudice during the twentieth century, while also providing a sense of hope for future generations.Original Material ©1957 Gerda Weissmann Klein; Recording (P)1997 FSG, Penguin U.S.A. 20th Century Judaism Military Modern

I cannot find it in me to write a review of Gerdas words. I’m so sorry any of this happened to her and all the millions of Jews and other ethnicities who were killed during ww2. I cried with deep sadness so many times whilst listening, and at the end I cried tears of happiness that she managed to live a full and happy life with children and grandchildren and for all that she did and her enduring love for Kurt. Bless you and all your family x
