Alice Herz-Sommer was born in 1903 in Prague. Musically very gifted, by her mid-teens Alice was one of the best-known pianists in Prague. But as the Nazis swept across Europe her comfortable, bourgeois world began to crumble around her, as anti-Jewish feeling was legitimised. This book tells her story.
