Where Are You, Nicholas?

Description

When the Nazis Took Everything, One Memory Kept Her Alive.

Yvonne Redgis lived a life shaped by grace, discipline, and quiet strength. A gifted dancer in Paris, she built her world through movement and devotion. When war overtook France, she entered the Resistance with conviction and purpose. The cost was immense. Captured, tattooed, and sent to Auschwitz, she endured what no human should endure.

Through it all, one name anchored her: Nicholas, the small French Bulldog she’d left behind. His memory became her lifeline through the darkest hours—proof that somewhere beyond the wire, love still existed and a future waited worth fighting for.

Where Are You, Nicholas? is the true story of a woman’s wartime ordeal, her hard-won freedom, and the unbreakable bond between a dancer and her dog. Built from Yvonne’s own journals, personal accounts, and historical records, this is a story of resistance, survival, and the devotion that makes us human even when the world has lost its humanity.

For readers who believe some bonds can never be broken—no matter the distance, no matter the darkness.

Ideal for readers of Holocaust biography, women’s history, and accounts of perseverance, this work honors the memory of Yvonne Redgis and the resilience that defined her journey.
