But can she save her own? Inspired by a previously untold true story. 1943, Eastern Europe. A kind-hearted 18-year-old, Inge is imprisoned in some godforsaken hellhole for the crime of simply existing. She used to dream of strawberry ice cream, of going dancing on a weekend, of one day traveling the world. Yet today, her every waking moment is consumed by beatings, starvation, and torturous labor. A disillusioned SS sergeant, Heinz can?t help but question the Third Reich?s philosophy because of the dumbfounding incidents he?s witnessed. Now, he yearns to forsake his duty, to run away with his dog, to live a life to be proud of. But he can?t, leaving him trapped in a world choking on endless suffering, misery, and death. So when the Jew and the Nazi meet, even though they exist on opposite sides of the deadly electrified fence, they each recognize a kindred spirit. An unlikely friendship develops. A friendship which sends waves of compassion rippling through the entire camp, saving lives, giving hope, easing suffering. For a fleeting moment, there is beauty in a world drenched in ugliness. But then the moment is gone, and darkness returns. And Inge and Heinz must pay a terrible price for foolishly believing they could make a difference. Yet it?s in this blackest of nights that the tiniest spark can cast the brightest light? Inspired by a previously untold true story, To Dream Of Shadows is an epic tale of sacrifice, love, and the strength of the human spirit. And due to its extensive research, it is probably the most realistic portrayal of camp life that you'll ever read in a novel. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Jews $z Europe, Eastern $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 2 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20231205010819.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20231202012457.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=171C105890E311EEA8442A1A39ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
