More about the book

The narrative explores the experiences of Jewish workers and merchants in Amsterdam's diamond industry during the Holocaust, detailing their initial exemption from deportation and eventual tragic fate at Bergen-Belsen. The men largely perished, while the women endured harsh conditions. A key figure, 'nurse Luba,' played a crucial role in saving the children left behind. The book draws on rich sources, including video testimonies, interviews, and personal documents, to provide a poignant account of survival and loss amidst the horrors of war.
