CILKA'S JOURNEY - THE TATTOOIST OF AUSCHWITZ 2
Her beauty saved her life - and condemned her.
In 1942 Cilka Klein is just sixteen years old when she is taken to Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp. The Commandant at Birkenau, Schwarzhuber, notices her long beautiful hair, and forces her separation from the other women prisoners. Cilka learns quickly that power, even unwillingly given, equals survival.
After liberation, Cilka is charged as a collaborator by the Russians and sent to a desolate, brutal prison camp in Siberia known as Vorkuta, inside the Arctic Circle.
Innocent, imprisoned once again, Cilka faces challenges both new and horribly familiar, each day a battle for survival. Cilka befriends a woman doctor, and learns to nurse the ill in the camp, struggling to care for them under unimaginable conditions. And when she tends to a man called Alexandr, Cilka finds that despite everything, there is room in her heart for love.
Based on what is known of Cilka Klein's time in Auschwitz, and on the experience of women in Siberian prison camps, Cilka's Journey is the breathtaking sequel to The Tattooist of Auschwitz. A powerful testament to the triumph of the human will, this novel will move you to tears, but it will also leave you astonished and uplifted by one woman's fierce determination to survive, against all odds.
'She was the bravest person I ever met'
Lale Sokolov, The Tattooist of Auschwitz
HEATHER MORRIS
I am a Native of New Zealand now resident in Australia, working in a large public hospital in Melbourne. For several years I studied and wrote screenplays, one of which was optioned by an academy award winning Screenwriter in the U.S. In 2003, I was introduced to an elderly gentleman "who might just have a story worth telling". The day I met Lale Sokolov changed my life, as our friendship grew and he embarked on a journey of self scrutiny, entrusting the inner most details of his life during the Holocaust. I originally wrote Lale's story as a screenplay - which ranked high in international competitions - before reshaping it into my debut novel, The Tattooist of Auschwitz.

MORRIS HEATHER
Es una guionista neozelandesa residente en Australia. Estudió trabajo social y guion cinematográfico, trabajó como guionista, y uno de sus textos fue seleccionado por la Academia. En 2003, de forma casual, entró en contacto con Lale Sokolov, un octogenario que había sido prisionero en Auschwitz y que, tras haber fundado una familia y un negocio en Australia, quería contar su experiencia como tatuador y prisionero en el campo de concentración y cómo allí conoció al amor de su vida. De la historia de Lale y Gita nació El tatuador de Auschwitz, uno de los mayores fenómenos editoriales del año 2018 en todo el mundo, que ha conmovido y emocionado a millones de lectores en más de cincuenta países.
Del interés que despertó uno de los personajes, Cilka Klein, y de la pasión investigadora de Heather, surgió El viaje de Cilka. Las tres hermanas es su tercera novela.
