Description: "Dedicated to the unknown British Army officer who saved her life in Bergen-Belsen in April 1945, this is the memoir of Zdenka Fantlova, who shares in her direct, unsentimental style day-to-day life during the rise of Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. Fantlova's astonishing memory and remarkable love of life combine to produce a historical document that will edify and inspire its readers.".

"My Lucky Star is also a reflection on the magical power of true love, a paean to the triumph of calmness and compassion over the machinery of hatred and murder, and a testament to the strength of the human spirit as it approaches death, struggles to survive, and is reborn."--BOOK JACKET.
