Synopsis
**The Inspiration Behind The Golden Globe-Winning Film**
The wrenching memoir of a young man who survived the Holocaust by concealing his Jewish identity and finding unexpected refuge as a member of the Hitler Youth.
**International acclaim for Solomon Perel's *Europa Europa***
"The sheer emotion of telling the tale is palpable. The whole is moving, and strange beyond belief." -*The Times* (London)
"It is a Holocaust memoir that is moving, straightforward, and quite completely bizarre, unsettling in all kinds of assumptions about identity, responsibility, and guilt." -*Glasgow Herald*
"Perel bares his soul to readers in this fascinating, unusual personal narrative of the Holocaust." -*Book Report*
"Many of the experiences of Holocaust survivors are incredible. None is more incredible than the story of a Jewish boy, Solomon Perel, who escaped from Germany to Russia, served with the Wehrmacht in Russia, was adopted by his commanding officer, and transferred to an elite Hitler Youth school." -*London Jewish News*
"A most remarkable story . . . extraordinary." -*The Australian*
"This book will move human hearts." -*Berliner Morgenpost*
