Description:Masza, a young Jewish woman, is swept up in the terror of the Holocaust. Separated from her family and all she holds dear, she is plunged into a sordid life of imprisonment. Her only comfort is her friendship with a fellow woman prisoner. The spirit of Masza’s mother visits her in dreamlike states, assuring her that they will be reunited soon.Masza learns that the place of her imprisonment is Auschwitz, named after the nearby town of Oswiecim. Before the war Oswiecim was home to a large Jewish community. The word derives from ushpitzin, meaning “guests” in Yiddish and Aramaic. But who are the guests? The soldiers who rape Masza daily? The prophets who were awaited during the festival of Sukkot? Or is Masza merely a guest in her own life? One of the SS officers becomes obsessed with Masza and steadily inflicts more and more damage on her, both physically and spiritually. He seems determined to break her spirit as well as her body, and he will ultimately be responsible for her death. As the inevitable end draws near, Masza’s mind begins to dissociate from the terror of her situation. Yet even as she loses touch with everyday reality, she becomes more attuned to the spiritual world. The bedroom in which she is being held hostage becomes, in her mind, a cabin aboard a ship travelling to Palestine, carrying refugees from the war. Her soul will survive, long after her body is destroyed. Healing and a return to life will be possible! In the final moments as she is led into the gas chamber, Masza recognizes another Jewish soul in the haunted eyes of the man assigned to keep things ticking over smoothly in this factory of death. Indeed, this Sonderkommando slave deserves another chance at life, just as she does. They will meet again in a different time and place, under a sunny sky in the mystical town of Safed. Although their bodies and minds have been crushed, their souls are truly free.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
