On Sunday 5th March, the National Holocaust Centre & Museum are delighted to welcome the return of best selling author Lucy Adlington to talk about her book 'The Dressmakers of Auschwitz'.

Her best selling book ‘The Dressmakers of Auschwitz’ is the extraordinary true story of Jewish prisoners who sewed for the camp commandant’s wife in an elite fashion salon.

Lucy will be talking about the book, her research and the ways in which friendship and the ways in which friendship and resilience triumph even in the darkest of places.

Drawing on diverse sources - including interviews with the last surviving seamstress -Lucy follows the fates of these brave women and offers a fresh look at a little-known chapter of World War II and the Holocaust.

Lucy will answer audience questions and sign copies of her book.
