The powerful, heart-breaking memoir of Dita Kraus, the real-life Librarian of Auschwitz

Born in Prague to a Jewish family in 1929, Dita Kraus has lived through the most turbulent decades of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Here, Dita writes with startling clarity on the horrors and joys of a life delayed by the Holocaust. From her earliest memories and childhood friendships in Prague before the war, to the Nazi-occupation that saw her and her family sent to the Jewish ghetto at Terezín, to the unimaginable fear and bravery of her imprisonment in Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen, and life after liberation.

Dita writes unflinchingly about the harsh conditions of the camps and her role as librarian of the precious books that her fellow prisoners managed to smuggle past the guards. But she also looks beyond the Holocaust – to the life she rebuilt after the war: her marriage to fellow survivor Otto B Kraus, a new life in Israel and the happiness and heartbreaks of motherhood.

Part of Dita’s story was told in fictional form in the Sunday Times bestseller The Librarian of Auschwitz by Antonio Iturbe. Her memoir tells the full story in her own words.

Asunción «Sunny» Hostin, la célebre coanfitriona de The View, siempre sintió que pertenecía a diferentes mundos y que debía elegir uno de ellos. De madre puertorriqueña y padre afroamericano, dejó atrás la pobreza y los obstáculos de su niñez en el sur del Bronx gracias a una combinación de esfuerzo, algo de suerte y becas universitarias. Al acabar sus estudios de Derecho, se sumergió de lleno en el sistema de justicia criminal y ejerció como fiscal en Washington, D.C. Más adelante, apostó todos sus conocimientos para convertirse en periodista legal. Fue una de las primeras que cubrió el caso de Trayvon Martin, contra el criterio de sus productores, que lo consideraban una historia local.

Hoy, Sunny Hostin es una de las voces ineludibles del mundo de las noticias y entretenimiento y aprovecha su enorme visibilidad para abogar por la justicia social y los marginados. En este libro, Sunny reflexiona sobre su lucha por tener hijos, sus dilemas personales y muchos de los casos de alto perfil en los que trabajó en CNN, Fox News, ABC y The View, siempre con ese estilo incisivo y «sin pelos en la lengua» que tan bien la define.

Yo soy estas verdades son las conmovedoras memorias de una mujer que supo compaginar varios mundos sin abandonar las raíces de su identidad, y logró el éxito profesional sin renunciar a sus ideales.

Sunny Hostin es la galardonada periodista, reportera y coanfitriona de The View. Anteriormente fue analista legal y presentadora en CNN. Ha escrito para Forbes Woman, Essence, New York Post, Wall Street Journal, Latina y Ebony. Es neoyorquina de pura cepa y vive con su esposo y dos hijos en Westchester, Nueva York.
