The sequel to the International Number One Bestseller The Tattooist of Auschwitz, based on a true story of love and resilience.
Born in New Zealand, Heather Morris is passionate about stories of survival, resilience and hope. In 2003, while working in a large public hospital in Melbourne, Heather was introduced to an elderly gentleman who 'might just have a story worth telling'. The day she met Lale Sokolov changed both their lives. Lale's story formed the basis for The Tattooist of Auschwitz and the follow-up novel, Cilka's Journey. In 2021 she published the phenomenal conclusion to the Tattooist trilogy, Three Sisters, after being asked to tell the story of three Holocaust survivors who knew Lale from their time in Auschwitz-Birkenau. Together, her novels have sold more than 16 million copies worldwide. Her exceptional new novel, Sisters Under the Rising Sun, was published in 2023 bringing another heart-wrenching true story to life with experiences of women in Japanese POW camps, how they found bravery in sisterhood and the hope to survive in music.
a sincere...moving attempt to speak the unspeakable
*The Sunday Times on The Tattooist of Auschwitz*
What an extraordinary and important book this is. We need as many
memories of the Holocaust as we can retain, and this is a moving
and ultimately uplifting story of love, loyalties and friendship
amidst the horrors of war. I'm so glad Lale and Gita were
eventually able to live long and happy lives together, and thankful
that Heather Morris was moved to record their incredible story.
It's a triumph
