Carter Fields

This was one of the more depressing books i have ever read. the things that Gerda went through and had to deal with are impeccable. everyone would think that the death march would be the worst thing for her, but I think that when Abek told her to "go away" after she had gotten all dressed up and happy to see him was the saddest part, and then he eventually died; which is also sad. What would have been tough for me or any other guy my age is to work twelve hours a day making parachutes and only a three hour break, in which is not a lot of time to sleep is crazy. I came in knowing about The Holocaust, but not like this. Greda is a brilliant writer and a strong woman. the way she writes everything and described it with such great detail is just awesome. I have so much respect for her its crazy.
