Kurzfassung:
Lisa Mano was born in 1916 into a large and cultured family from Salonika, now Greece. On the eve of World War II, she became Lisa Pinhas, and in April 1943 she shared the fate of her family and the Jewish community of the deported city, all of whom had been exterminated by the Nazis. After surviving 22 months with her sister at Auschwitz camps I and II and the "death march" following the evacuation (January 1945); they were sent to other camps, that of Ravensbrück, then that of Rechling. A second "death march" ended with the liberation of northern Germany (April 30). Marked forever by the concentration camp experience and the loss of 112 members of her family, Lisa dedicated the rest of her life to the writing of her testimony, precision and exceptional probity, edited here for the first time in its original version. She also became committed to others, becoming an emblematic figure of the memory of the Holocaust in Greece. A rare and strong testimony, a "wounded bird's cry" addressed to humanity by a woman out of the ordinary
