Product Description
The Sisters of Ravensbrück by Lynne Olson
The extraordinary true story of a courageous group of Frenchwomen in the Resistance who defied the Nazis inside a notorious concentration camp—told by New York Times bestselling author Lynne Olson (Madame Fourcade’s Secret War).
“At once heartbreaking and beautifully told, this is a masterwork of nonfiction, a must-read for anyone who wants more of the incredible true story behind Lilac Girls.” —Martha Hall Kelly, author of Lilac Girls
One of the Top Ten Books of June —The Washington Post & Los Angeles Times
Decades after World War II, Ravensbrück remains synonymous with horror—the only all-female Nazi concentration camp, where 80% of inmates were political prisoners. Among them was a brave circle of French Resistance women who refused to surrender their humanity or their mission.
Trained in sabotage and espionage, these women carried their defiance into captivity. At Ravensbrück, they risked death daily—refusing forced labor, protecting one another, and even performing a satirical musical mocking their captors. Their acts of rebellion were both a fight for survival and a stand for dignity amid brutality.
After liberation, when many sought to forget the past, these survivors banded together again—to heal, to remember, and to seek justice. Their postwar efforts would shape France’s conscience and resonate across generations.
