Thomas Buergenthal, now a Judge in the International Court of Justice in The Hague, tells his astonishing experiences as a young boy in his memoir A Lucky Child. He arrived at Auschwitz at age 10 after surviving two ghettos and a labor camp. Separated first from his mother and then his father, Buergenthal managed by his wits and some remarkable strokes of luck to survive on his own. Almost two years after his liberation, Buergenthal was miraculously reunited with his mother and in 1951 arrived in the U.S. to start a new life. Now dedicated to helping those subjected to tyranny throughout the world, Buergenthal writes his story with a simple clarity that highlights the stark details of unimaginable hardship. A Lucky Child is a book that demands to be read by all. Review In the plainest words and the steadiest tones (as an intimate would speak deadly truth in the dead of night), Thomas Buergenthal delivers to us the child he once was: an unblemished little boy made human prey by Europes indelible twentieth-century barbarism, a criminality that will never leave off its telling. History and memory fail to ebb; rather, they accelerate and proliferate, and Buergenthals voice is now more thunderous than ever. Pledged to universal human rights, he has turned a life of gratuitous deliverance into a work of visionary compassion. Cynthia Ozick, author of Heir to the Glimmering WorldA Lucky Child is an extraordinary story, simply and beautifully told. Heartbreaking and thrilling, it examines what it means to be human, in every good and awful sense. Perhaps most amazingly of all, Thomas Buergenthal remembers and renders the small mysteries and grand passions of childhood, even a childhood lived under the most horrific circumstances. Elizabeth McCracken, author of An Exact Replica of a Figment of My ImaginationThe unsentimental tone of Buergenthals writing magnifies his deliberate decision not to make melodrama out of a story that is plenty dramatic enough. Like Primo Levi and Anne Frank, Buergenthal can only tell the story of one life, but through that life we are led to consider and honor all the lives of those who werent so lucky. Kate Braestrup, author of Here If You Need MeAn extraordinary historical document and a humane statement of great moral depth. Bernard Wasserstein, Harriet and Ulrich E. Meyer Professor of History, University of ChicagoAn extraordinary and inspiring book by an extraordinary and inspiring man. Its one of those rare books you devour cover to cover in a single reading. It deserves to be read very widely indeed, especially for anyone desperate for a hint of light in a world that can often seem so very dark. Philippe Sands, author of Torture Team and Lawless WorldA remarkable, sometimes astonishing story of finding protection and kindness from unlikely sources, uncanny narrow escapes and a powerfully strong will to live. Betty Gordon, The Atlanta Journal-ConstitutionBuergenthal is an excellent and evocative storyteller. The fine writing and insights here make this book a powerful choice for teens looking for a mentor through emotional and political challenges of their own. Francisca Goldsmith, School Library JournalYou think youve heard it all....But this one is different. The clear, nonhectoring prose makes Buergenthals personal story-and the enduring ethical questions it prompts-the stuff of a fast, gripping read. Booklist Powerful....The authors story is astonishing and moving, and his capacity for forgiveness is remarkably heartening. An important new voice joins the chorus of survivors. Kirkus ReviewsIn the darkness, the indomitable spirit of the child...[is] what makes this memoir so rewarding. Genevieve Fox, Telegraph About the Author Considered one of the worlds leading international human rights law experts, Thomas Buergenthal served as a judge at the International Court of Justice and prior thereto as judge and president of the Inte
