«The remarkable story of a Jewish boy who killed a Nazi guard and escaped the Holocaust at age 13» - The Times
In the early 1940s, Chaim Herzsman was enclosed in the Lodz ghetto in Poland. Hungry, fearless, and determined, he begins food-searching missions outside the camp's limits, until he is forced to kill a Nazi guard. This moment changes the course of his life and leads him into an incredible adventure behind enemy lines. «Escape from the Ghetto» is about an ordinary son who faced extermination by the Nazis in the ghetto or a death camp, and the extraordinary life he lived by avoiding that fate. It is a bitter story full of hope, beauty amidst terror, and the triumph of the human spirit. John Carr is the eldest son of Henry Carr, and in «Escape From the Ghetto» he has recreated his father's incredible adventure, through recordings and transcripts of conversations from his later life. For fans of «The Tattooist of Auschwitz», «The Saboteur of Auschwitz», and «The Volunteer», this is the incredible true story of escaping the Nazis during World War II.
