The Tattooist of Auschwitz

Heather Morris

This book is based on the true story of Lale Sokolov a Slovakian Jew who was given the job of tattooing numbers on the new prisoners’ arms and describes what he had to do to survive the concentration camp.

It is also a love story of him falling in love at first sight with Gita, a girl who was waiting to be tattooed. It explores their relationship and how they managed to meet while in Auschwitz and continue their relationship.

Milton means “town with the mill” and there are over 55 Miltons in Scotland. Milton Parish was first established in May 1836 and it was also the name used for part of north Glasgow for civil registration purposes on birth, marriage and death certificates from 1855 until approx. 1900.
