Sobre este título
From Kisvárda to Canada: My Mother’s Holocaust Journey, author Brian Claman documents the true story of his mother, Maria (Mary) Katz Claman, a Hungarian Jewish teenager deported from Kisvárda to Auschwitz-Birkenau in June 1944. Tattooed with number A12064, she survived Auschwitz, forced labor at HASAG-Altenburg, a death march, and liberation in 1945.
This edition is based entirely on verifiable sources, including her USC Shoah Foundation testimony (No. 32345), the Arolsen Archives, Yad Vashem, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, and AJDC records. No detail is imagined or embellished.
The book follows Mary’s life from childhood in prewar Hungary through the Holocaust and her postwar recovery in Canada. It combines survivor testimony with historical documentation to present a faithful, factual record of one woman’s endurance amid genocide.
Mary and her sister Suzanne were later registered at the Prien am Chiemsee displaced persons camp and immigrated to Canada in 1948. In Montreal, Mary rebuilt her life, married Abraham Claman, and raised three children, preserving a legacy that the Nazis tried to erase.
Written with clarity and restraint, this book is both a son’s tribute and a historical document. It stands as an educational resource for listeners, students, and museums devoted to Holocaust remembrance and as a reminder that truth and memory must outlast denial.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
