Traducere de Luana Schidu După succesul internațional al romanelor Tatuatorul de la Auschwitz, vândut în peste 7 500 000 de exemplare, și Călătoria Cilkăi, Heather Morris a primit invitația să meargă în Israel pentru a descoperi istoria a trei surori, supraviețuitoare ale lagărelor Auschwitz-Birkenau. Petrece un timp alături de o familie extraordinară și, datorită deja bine cunoscutului ei dar de a asculta, află o nouă poveste fabuloasă. Bazat pe fapte reale, Trei surori este un roman vibrant despre puterea speranței în vremuri potrivnice și despre încrederea în forța dragostei, chiar și după pierderi devastatoare. La sfârșitul anilor 1920, trei fetițe dintr-un orășel din Slovacia sunt rugate de tatăl lor să promită că vor avea mereu grijă una de cealaltă. Fac ușor o astfel de făgăduință, neimaginându-și ce greutate va căpăta ea nu peste mult timp. La 15 ani, Livi e trimisă la Auschwitz. Cibi, care are 19 ani, nu poate concepe să-și lase singură sora mai mică și decide să o însoțească. Magda, în vârstă de 17 ani, reușește să se ascundă o vreme, dar până la urmă ajunge și ea în lagăr. Cele trei surori se reîntâlnesc în cel mai cumplit loc cu putință: la Auschwitz-Birkenau. Cruzimea și teroarea pe care le au de înfruntat sunt inimaginabile, dar amintindu-și de tatăl lor și de rugămintea lui, de devotamentul mamei lor și de afecțiunea cu care au fost mereu înconjurate, luptă din toate puterile pentru a trăi.

A viagem de Cilka é baseado na história real de Cilka Klein e na de tantas outras mulheres presas nos campos de concentração nazistas e, após o fim da Segunda Guerra Mundial, nos gulagui russos. Nessa emocionante sequência do grande best-seller mundial O tatuador de Auschwitz, Heather Morris nos apresenta um testemunho não apenas do poder do amor e da esperança, mas também da força que há nas mulheres. A beleza salvou sua vida... mas também a levou ao inferno. Cilka Klein tinha apenas dezesseis anos quando foi levada ao campo de concentração e extermínio de Auschwitz-Birkenau, em 1942. Seus lindos e longos cabelos – os mesmos a atraírem a atenção e a curiosidade do tatuador de Auschwitz, em meio a tantas cabeças femininas raspadas naquela prisão de grandes horrores – são notados pelos oficiais nazistas. No entanto, é ninguém menos que o comandante do campo, Schwarzhuber, que a separa das demais prisioneiras, forçando-a a se submeter a terríveis violências... se quiser sobreviver. Anos depois, vem a liberação do campo. Pela proximidade de sua relação com o alto comando nazista, o exército russo classifica Cilka como "colaboradora", e a ainda jovem é levada para uma brutal prisão soviética na Sibéria. Inocente, mas prisioneira mais uma vez, Cilka deve enfrentar novos (e outros já familiares) desafios cruéis, batalhando a cada dia pela própria sobrevivência. E em meio a esse inferno, será possível que Cilka encontre espaço em seu coração para o amor?
