My Voice: Ivor Wieder

Discover the powerful narrative of survival and resilience in My Voice by Ivor Wieder, set to be published by Manchester University Press in 2025. This poignant book is part of the My Voice Project, which features firsthand accounts from Holocaust survivors and refugees who found refuge in the UK after enduring the unimaginable horrors of Nazi persecution.

Ivor Wieder’s story is particularly compelling, as he recounts his childhood in Barsana, Romania, and the traumatic experiences he faced in Auschwitz, where he lost his father, and Bergen-Belsen. After liberation, Ivor and his brother made their way to London, where they began to rebuild their lives.

With 158 pages of heartfelt storytelling, My Voice not only preserves the memories of those who suffered but also serves as a testament to the strength of the human spirit. A must-read for anyone interested in history, resilience, and the personal stories that shape our world.
