A new historical novel from the author of international bestseller The Brothers of Auschwitz
Malka Adler was born in a small village near the Sea of Galilee in northern Israel.
She began her work as an author when she turned 50. After taking a creative writing course, she fell in love with the art.
Malka has written six books, four of which are about the Holocaust. She obtained her undergraduate and graduate degrees in educational counselling at Bar Ilan University and is a family and couples' therapist, writer and facilitator of several reading clubs.
‘I read The Polish Girl with bated breath and high emotion. Such a
difficult story, written with such talent. Malka’s writing tackles
the complex relationships within a family, conveying admiration
with reservation, dependence with independence, attraction with
withdrawal. Every book about the Holocaust is special in its own
way, and this one is particularly unique. This is a rare story
about survival in the very heart of the German regime and the
mostly hostile Polish population. It is also the story of a Jewish
family, sisters, brothers, and mother, who do all they can to help
each other survive, even at the cost of their own lives. The Polish
Girl combines the best of literary fiction with true accounts,
adding another important piece to the mosaic that is the story of
the Holocaust, which can never be told entirely.’
