Publisher's Summary

This program includes exclusive archival audio.

From Heather Morris, the New York Times best-selling author of the multimillion-copy best seller The Tattooist of Auschwitz and Cilka's Journey: a story of family, courage, and resilience, inspired by a true story.

Against all odds, three Slovakian sisters have survived years of imprisonment in the most notorious death camp in Nazi Germany: Auschwitz. Livia, Magda, and Cibi have clung together, nearly died from starvation and overwork, and the brutal whims of the guards in this place of horror. But now, the allies are closing in and the sisters have one last hurdle to face: the death march from Auschwitz, as the Nazis try to erase any evidence of the prisoners held there. Due to a last minute stroke of luck, the three of them are able to escape formation and hide in the woods for days before being rescued.

And this is where the story begins. From there, the three sisters travel to Israel, to their new home, but the battle for freedom takes on new forms. Livia, Magda, and Cibi must face the ghosts of their past - and some secrets that they have kept from each other - to find true peace and happiness.

Inspired by a true story, and with events that overlap with those of Lale, Gita, and Cilka, The Three Sisters will hold a place in listeners' hearts and minds as they experience what true courage really is.

Excellent and heartwarming story of love and survival

I have read or listened to dozens of WW II era books. This is definitely in the top 3.

Emotional, unforgettable, will read it again soon!

I had read the Tattooist of Auschwitz several years ago, so I chose Three Sisters because of the author! No words can describe my emotional journey with these girls!!!! The fact that it’s a true account & Heather’s depiction of events, made this probably one of the finest books I’ve ever read!! I will never forget their story!!!

FANTASTIC NARRATOR

PLEASE Finty must need to narrate more books!

I could only listen a little here and there. Sad, brave, full of courage and may we never forget.

Upper British accents for all

The Slovakies Russians, Germans, Polish, Israelites- yes everyone male and female had the readers upper British accent. A little disconcerting.

Heather Morris is a genius

I loved this book.... I listened on a long road trip and hated to turn it off when I had to stop for gas. The story of sisterly love, the horrors of the Nazi concentration camps, and the long road to wholeness. The prose is lyrical, the descriptons succinct and clear, the imagery rich. If you read The Tattoist of Auschwitz, pick this one up!

Wonderful, Heartbreaking Story

This is such a hard story to read; to think that humans could be so heartless and barbaric to their fellow humans is unfathomable. Thank you to those sisters and the author for sharing this story. It’s a 5-star book, but I gave the performance 4 stars because there are some glitches in the recording. Otherwise, the narration was excellent.

incredible survival story of 3 sisters

moving story, not as unusual as you'd think ( my mother in law and 3 of her 4 siblings survived ), but should have gotten a narrator who actually knows Hebrew. Also found a couple of historical inaccuracies

Absolutely beautiful story

Just when you think you’ve read enough about survivor stories of the Holocaust, this one comes along and reminds you, there are literally millions of stories to be told. I’m so thankful this one was brought to us in such a beautiful way. It’s humbling, heartbreaking and inspiring.

Great story.

The book was great and the narration was great. I enjoyed listening to this story.

INCREDIBLE BOOK /AWESOME NARRATION

I have listened to many books about WW2. THIS BOOK IS ONE OF THE ALL TIME BEST! ESPECIALLY THE NARRATION !
