Dwarfs of Auschwitz will keep you reading til the very end, all while it follows the lives of an entertainment group of 10 siblings (7 of them being dwarfs) living through one of the most inhumane events the world has ever encountered; the Holocaust. The Ovitz family, knowing how people responded to these dwarf sized people in the entertainment world, decided to begin a troupe in which they referred to themselves as the Lilliputs. They found great success, drawing large crowds wherever they went. However, this life was about to drastically change as the Nazis began to spread through Central Europe in the 1940’s.
