"I really do not hate. To hate is to let Hitler get." - Rena Kornreich Gelissen. On March 26, 1942, the first mass transfer of Jews - 999 young women - found its way to Auschwitz. Among them was Rena Kornreich, the 716th female numbered in camp. A few days later, her sister Danka gets there and so begins a trial of love and courage that can last 3 years and 41 days, from the beginning Auschwitz loss of life camp to the finish of the conflict. Rena's Offer stands out from other memoirs not limited to the mere length of time she spent in the camps (no other survivor from the first transfer has ever discussed her experience) but for her determination to honoring the bonds between moms, daughters, and sisters, prisoners, and even guards. From her get away from Dr. Mengele's test details to her surreal meetings with SS female Irma Grese, Rena instructs a dynamic story of courage and compassion that reminds us of the resiliency of the human being spirit, and the power of men and women to help one another in unimaginable circumstances, be they Gentile or Jew, German or Pole, kapo or prisoner.
