Set against the backdrop of World War II, this memoir explores the complex relationship between Helga Schneider and her mother, a former Nazi SS guard. The narrative unfolds during their final encounter in a Vienna nursing home, where Helga grapples with her mother's unapologetic past, including her role in the atrocities at Auschwitz. Schneider's vivid recollections highlight the tension between familial duty and the haunting legacy of her mother's actions, creating a powerful reflection on guilt, memory, and the search for understanding.
