"How music provided hope in one of the world's darkest times--the inspirational life story of Alice Herz-Sommer, the oldest living Holocaust survivor" Alice Herz-Sommer was born in Prague in 1903. A talented pianist from a very early age, she became famous throughout Europe; but, as the Nazis rose to power, her world crumbled. In 1942, her mother was deported to the Theresienstadt concentration camp and vanished. In 1943, Alice, her husband and their six-year-old son were sent there, too. In the midst of horror, music, especially Chopin's "Etudes, " was Alice's salvation. Theresienstadt was a "show camp," a living slice of Nazi propaganda created to convince outsiders that the Jews were being treated humanely. In more than a hundred concerts, Alice gave her fellow prisoners hope in a time of suffering. Written with the cooperation of Alice Herz-Sommer, Melissa Muller and Reinhard Piechocki's "Alice's Piano" is the first time her story has been told. At 107 years old, she continues to play her piano in London and bring hope to many.Binding Type: Hardcover

Good product and price
Color: Beige, Size: Queen (Pack of 4)
These pillow cases were a good price point, they are soft on your face, and pretty color. My only negative comment is that we use standard sized pillows, and these cases are too big. So I fold the open end into itself to prevent bunching/loose ends.

Amazing. Ordering more
Color: White, Size: Standard (Pack of 4)
These are amazing and the price is crazy. I'm buying a few more sets. The color is white/white, which I love. They are so soft, not flimsy at all. A great value. Well made, the seams are well sown and the envelope casing even ups the look

Soft, Luxurious & Perfect for Hair and Skin!

These satin pillowcases are honestly amazing. The material feels super soft, smooth, and cooling on the skin, and they make my bed look so elegant and luxurious. I bought them mainly to help protect my hair from frizz and dryness, They’re also very comfortable to sleep on and don’t feel cheap at all. The color is beautiful in person, exactly like the photos on Amazon. I washed them already and they still kept their softness and shine. Definitely worth the purchase for the price I would 100% buy again and recommend to anyone looking for cute, comfortable satin pillowcases.”
