Unbroken: From Auschwitz To Buenos Aires is the story of Holocaust survivor Charles Papiernik. Educated in a Polish stetl, he became active in a socialist youth movement, moved to Paris, and suffered four horrific years in death camps. After the war, he spent twenty-five years running a business in Uruguay, until political and economic turmoil prompted him to move to Buenos Aires. After his retirement, he sought to tell others about the horrors of the Holocaust. A truly remarkable tale of enduring unspeakable cruelty, and garning the shrewdness to survive and prosper in the wake of terrible loss, Unbroken is a powerful testimony of a truly stalwart individual.
