Paperback. Una legendaria historia de amor, inexplicable e injustamente olvidada.Mala Zimetbaum era una joven encantadora, culta y carismatica. Hablaba varios idiomas y las SS la eligieron como interprete y traductora. Una mujer de gran generosidad, que ayudaba en todos los sentidos a sus companeros de prision. Edek, Edward Galinski, era una persona fuera de lo comun: uno de los primeros deportados a Auschwitz-Birkenau. Fue testigo del nacimiento y crecimiento de la maquina de genocidio, pero nunca se dio por vencido. En 1944, aunque el Tercer Reich se aproximaba a la derrota, en los campos de exterminio la masacre continuaba.En este entorno Edek y Mala, enamorados, van al encuentro de su destino. Un cuento de hadas sin final feliz, como a veces ocurre en las historias reales, que la periodista Francesca Paci reconstruye por primera vez a traves de fuentes extraidas de los archivos del Museo Estatal de Auschwitz, documentos de la epoca y conversaciones con los pocos testigos de esta historia de amor que siguen vivos.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONA legendary love story, inexplicably and wrongfully forgotten.Mala Zimetbaum was a charming, educated, and charismatic young woman. She spoke several languages and was chosen as interpreter and translator by the SS. She was a woman of great generosity, helping her fellow prisoners in every way possible. Edek, Edward Galinski, was an unusual person, one of the very first deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau. He witnessed the inception and development of the genocide machine, but never gave up.In 1944, even as the Third Reichsdemise was approaching, the massacre continued at the death camps.In thissetting, Edek and Mala, in love, face their destiny head on. It is a fairy tale with no happy ending (as sometimes happens in real-life stories),that journalist Francesca Paci recreatesfor the first time through sources from the Auschwitz-BirkenauStateMuseum archives, documents from thetime, and conversations with those few still alive who witnessed their love story.
