In August 1944, 800 Jewish women from Hungary and Poland were moved
from Auschwitz to Bremen to undertake forced labour. This important
book presents unique research on a forgotten camp and its forgotten
forced workers. Helmut Mueller writes from the point of view of the
women themselves. By using Survivors' written and oral accounts,
and archive documentation, Mueller creates a literary diary,
which-together with the historical background of demands for
'employment of female prisoners'-brings to life the existence,
suffering and dying of the women of Obernheide. In addition to the
translation of the original German text, this edition contains the
reflections of Hedy Brasch, a member of Drew University's Center
for Holocaust/Genocide Study and a Survivor of Obernheide.
