You Only Have What You Give Away Itka Frajman Zygmuntowicz

"Itka Zygmuntowicz, survivor of the infamous Auschwitz concentration camp, wrote a series of poems that touch on her horrifying experiences and thoughts from surviving two death camps. In You Only Have What You Give Away, Itka bears witness so the holocaust will never be forgotten or repeated. She writes both prose and poetry, but often expresses herself in rhyme, where she can best convey her deepest messages and feelings. In poetry, she also finds a voice to express the pain and longings as well as the joy that are so powerful within her. You Only Have What You Give Away conveys an uplifting message of love, hope, and tolerance."
