"I Promised I Would Tell" is a deeply moving memoir by Sonia Weitz, a survivor of the Holocaust. During World War II, she endured the horrors of the Kraków Ghetto and five concentration camps, where millions of Jews were systematically exterminated. Out of her family of 84, only she and her sister Blanka survived.

Through vivid and heartbreaking descriptions, the book captures the brutal realities of Nazi persecution. Interwoven with Sonia's own poetry, it offers a profoundly personal and poetic testimony of suffering and survival. Yet, beyond its harrowing memories, this memoir carries a message of hope—that humanity will learn from its past and strive for a world free from hatred, violence, and genocide. Sonia’s reflections remind us of the tragic echoes of history, from the Holocaust to the Armenian Genocide of 1915 and the Cambodian Genocide of the 20th century.
