Out of Hiding:A Holocaust Survivor's Journey to America Free Audiobook Download by Ruth Gruener

This novel follows the story of Ruth Gruener who was a thirteen-year-old girl living in Nazi Germany during the early 1930s. When she is captured and sent to Auschwitz concentration camp, her world is forever changed. Her family instinctually told her to hide, but she couldn't because it would have meant giving up on her father and brother. Thirteen years later when she makes it to America, Ruth wants nothing more than for everyone to feel safe. Disguising herself as an old woman, she attends a meeting of the board of directors for Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem. When one of the hospital's nurses starts asking questions about where she's from and what else has been happening in Europe, Ruth relents and tells her story

In a letter to the editor of The New York Times, Ruth Gruener's daughter expressed her sorrow for the fact that she hopes her mother's story will reach as many people in America as possible. It is never too late to learn from past mistakes.

"I did not think that I would live to be 100 years old," she says. "The whole world looked like a pirate ship, with the black triangle and everything."

Oftentimes, it is easy to forget that it was in fact the Holocaust that brought these refugees to America. What is even more difficult to remember is the sheer number of Jews that managed to escape the Shoah. The United States welcomed over 400,000 Jewish refugees fleeing Europe during WWII and many of them found refuge in New York City. Out of Hiding reveals this untold story through personal interviews with Ruth Gruener, a Holocaust survivor who reached America in 1946 after spending four years hiding in a farmhouse near the French border.
