“I will change with the story of Dr. Agar forever … The election reminds us what courage looks in the worst time and we all have the ability to pay attention to what we have lost, or to pay attention to what we have.” – Opra
“Dr. Agar’s life shows our ability that she too overcomes the greatest horrors and uses that pain for the benefit of others. She has gained true freedom and forgiveness and has shown us how we can do.” —Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace Prize Award winner
“Dr. Edith Eva Agar is my kind hero. She survived unnecessary frightening and cruelty; but instead of destroying her painful past, she chose to turn it into a powerful gift – one she uses to help others heal.” -Gennet Walls, New York Times Bestseling Writer of Glass Castle

At the age of sixteen, Edith Egger was sent to Aushwitz. A few hours after his parents were killed, the Nazi Officer Dr. Joseph Menjel forced AD to dance for his entertainment and its existence. Eddie was pulled from a pile of corpses when American soldiers freed the camps in 1945.
Eddie has been determined for decades to struggle with flashbacks and the crime of Survivor, to remain silent and hide from the past. Thirty-five years after the war ended, she returned to the Aushwitz and was finally able to heal and forgive the person whom she was unable to forgive-Herself.
Eddie has weaved his remarkable personal journey with the moving stories of those that he has helped to heal. She explains how we can be captured in our mind and show us how to find the key to freedom. Election is a life -changing book that will provide hope and comfort to the generations of readers.
