From SHARON CAMERON, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Reese’s Book Club pick The Light in Hidden Places, comes a new novel based on an extraordinary true story set in the most hellish circumstances possible—the Sobibor death camp in Poland in 1943. Sharon Cameron became inspired to write UP FROM THE ASHES after discovering Selma Engel’s oral history interview on the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum’s website. The history was fascinating, but it was Chaim (Kah-yeem) and Selma, and the hope born from love that they forged together—the hope that helped them survive—that truly inspired her. UP FROM THE ASHES is a work of dramatized fiction. All the events from the book are from eyewitness testimony. All the characters are real, using their real names where known. Sharon Cameron worked closely with the Engel children and grandchildren to make this novel as accurate as it could possibly be. The result is an extraordinarily moving work that celebrates how hope and love can light even the darkest path.
