520    Zippi Spitzer and David Wisnia were captivated by each 
       other from the moment they first exchanged glances across 
       the work floor. It was the beginning of a love story that 
       could have happened anywhere. Except for one difference: 
       this romance was unfolding in history's most notorious 
       death camp, between two young prisoners whose budding 
       intimacy risked dooming them if they were caught.  
       Incredibly, David and Zippi survived for years beneath the
       ash-choked skies of Auschwitz. Under the protection of 
       their fellow inmates, their romance grew and deepened, 
       even as their brushes with death mounted and David's luck 
       in particular seemed close to running out. As the war's 
       end finally approached and the time came for them to leave
       the camp, David and Zippi made plans to meet again. But 
       neither of them could imagine how long their reunion would
       take or how many lives they would live in the interim. 
       They had no inkling, either, of the betrayals that would 
       await them along the way. But David did suspect that Zippi
       harbored a secret--one that could explain the mystery of 
       his survival all those years ago.  An unbelievable tale of
       romance, sacrifice, loss, and resilience, Lovers in 
       Auschwitz is a saga of two young people who found 
       themselves trapped inside a waking nightmare of the Nazis'
       creation, yet who nevertheless discovered a love that 
       sustained them through history's darkest hour.
