A New York Instances Bestseller

“I’ll be forever changed simply by Dr. Eger’s tale…The Choice is certainly a reminder of what courage appears like in the most severe of that time period and that we all have the ability to pay attention to what we’ve dropped, or to pay attention to what we should still have.”-Oprah

“Dr. Eger’s life reveals our capability to transcend even the greatest of horrors also to make use of that suffering for the benefit of others. She’s found true freedom and forgiveness and displays us how we can as well.” -Desmond Tutu, about THE DECISION: Escaping the Past and Embracing the Feasible Nobel Peace Prize Laureate

“Dr. Edith Eva Eger can be my sort of hero. She survived unspeakable horrors and brutality; but rather than allow her painful past destroy her, she thought we would transform it right into a powerful gift-one she uses to help others heal.” -Jeannette Wall space, New York Times bestselling writer of The Cup Castle

Winner of the National Jewish Reserve Award and Christopher Award

At the age of sixteen, Edith Eger was sent to Auschwitz. Hours after her parents were killed, Nazi official Dr. Josef Mengele, forced Edie to dance for his leisure and her survival. Edie was taken from a pile of corpses when the American troops liberated the camps in 1945.

Edie spent decades struggling with flashbacks and survivor’s guilt, determined to remain silent and hide from the past. Thirty-five years following the war ended, she returned to Auschwitz and was finally able to completely heal and forgive the main one person she’d been struggling to forgive-herself.

Edie weaves her remarkable personal trip using the moving tales of those she has helped heal. She explores how we could be imprisoned in our very own minds and shows us how to find the main element to freedom. THE DECISION is normally a life-changing publication that will provide hope and comfort and ease to generations of readers.
