In April 1942, Lale Sokolov, a Slovakian Jew, was forcibly transported to Auschwitz-Birkenau, where he was tasked with inking the arms of thousands of his fellow prisoners—including Gita, his future wife—with what would become an enduring symbol of the Holocaust. In her only New York City event, join Heather Morris, the author of the international bestseller and #1 New York Times bestseller The Tattooist of Auschwitz, for a reading and a discussion of the real-life Lale who inspired her debut novel.
