' These two sisters might be some of our final living first-hand witnesses to thehorrors of the Holocaust. With this book, they break the silence and give us theimmeasurable gift of their story. ' - Gwen Strauss, author of The Nine On 28 March 1944, Italian sisters Tati (six) and Andra (four) were roused from theirsleep and taken to Auschwitz, to the infamous Kinder Block presided over by JosefMengele, the Angel of Death. By the time Auschwitz was liberated, 230,000 childrenhad been murdered, and the sisters were among only 70 child survivors. Throughout their ordeal in the camp and the liberation of Auschwitz, their longjourney from Poland to Czechoslovakia and finally to Lingfield House in Britain, theyhung on to their promise to their mother to ' always remember your name' . Theynever forgot they were Tati and Andra Bucci, and it was this connection to theirheritage that brought them miraculously back to their parents, years later andmany countries away. The sisters overcame their trauma to live long lives, bearingwitness as survivors of the Holocaust. ' Always Remember Your Name is heart-breaking and yet utterly uplifting, with thefierce bond of two sisters at its heart, who survived the Holocaust to bear witness,so that none of us will ever forget. ' - Heather Morris ' A valuable record of what was suffered by surely some of our youngest survivors. Insightful and illuminating, the road to recovery - with its silences, loyalties, and selfexaminations - is never what we might suppose. ' - Esther Freud
