Publisher's Summary
Random House presents the audiobook edition of The Choice by Edith Eger, read by Tovah Feldshuh with an introduction by the author.
Edith Eger was a gymnast and ballerina when she was sent to Auschwitz at the age of sixteen. There, she was made to dance for the infamous Josef Mengele. Her heroic actions helped her sister to survive, and her bunkmates to save her life, during a death march, after which she was found in a pile of bodies, barely alive. She recovered and moved to America, going on to become an eminent psychologist, and giving the keynote address at Viktor Frankl's 90th birthday party.
Like Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, Dr Edith Eger's important book, The Choice, could change your life. Eger shares stories of the Holocaust and the experiences of her clients, who range from survivors of abuse to soldiers suffering from PTSD. She explains how many of us live within a mind that has become a prison and shows how freedom becomes possible once we confront our suffering. Warm, wise and compassionate, The Choice offers profound insights into the nature of human suffering, and our capacity to heal.

beautiful journey
Books about the holocaust and survivors are never enough. they always shock, surprise and give hope. This one delves deeper and will make the reader think and do some deep introspection. A must read

Honest, brilliant,moving and helpful
What a book! Having read many World War II survival stories, I thought this will be another one on similar lines. These books never fail to touch our innermost feelings. But this one was different. Wonderfully written, brilliantly segmented, truthful and honest yet always sustaining our interest, very moving though the wartime events occupy only a part of the book and above all a offering a guide to our lives, how could I have put it down? Is this a family story? A tale of survival? A narration of any human beings quintessential love? Or a book on psychology? I keep wondering.

Beyond words
A book I started expecting to get some tips on self help, and who better to get survival mantra from a real survivor ! And here I am, this book surprised me through and through. The seeming ease with which Dr Edith has connected different worlds when nothing ever can compare with the suffering she has been thorough, seems to be from outside this world. Yet, it is, in her words, "... what you put in your mind..." A guide out of your own prison...
Thank you Dr E. ! Your sharing of your legacy is a treasure.
The narration gets a couple of chapters to get used to, but the emotion and faithfulness to circumstances it produces makes this a memorable production.

Excellent listen
This book is an excellent listen and changes the way you look at life. It is all about how you choose to live
What has really struck a chord for me is that we have a choice to pay attention to what we’ve lost or pay attention to what we STILL have .
