A Remarkable Literary Achievement
 |
| Paulette Mahurin |
I have just added another name to my list of favorite
writers of World War II stories. Her name is Paulette Mahurin, an award-winning
and best-selling author of several superb books. Her recent novel “The Seven
Year Dress” is a marvel. I am a student of World War II. I have a library of
books and movies on the subject. This excellent work of historical fiction will
hold a special place among them.
Under madman Adolf Hitler and his equally mad horde of
followers, European Jews and other “undesirables” were persecuted, tortured,
and far too many of them executed in ways unimaginable, often in gas chambers
in concentration camps. This exceptional novel recounts the story of beautiful Jewish
teenager Helen Stein, forced into hiding from the Nazi’s in a basement, but
when discovered finally, is sent to Auschwitz. In that death camp, she endures
unspeakable cruelty at the hands of the SS, but also compassion, kindness, and
friendship among her fellow prisoners. Ultimately, in that darkness, the
strength of the human spirit is a beacon in this remarkable literary
achievement.
