A Lucky Child

''A Lucky Child'' is a memoir written by Thomas Buergenthal, in the vein of ''Night'' by Elie Wiesel or ''My Brother’s Voice'' (2003) by Stephen Nasser, in which he recounts the astounding story of his surviving the Holocaust as a ten-year-old child owing to his wits and some remarkable strokes of luck.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 A Lucky Child )
The book chronicles the author's life in Czechoslovakia and escape from concentration camp. The book's title refers the author's mother, Mutti who while consulting a fortune-teller in Katowice, Poland was told that her child was “ein Glückskind” – a lucky child – an accurate prophecy in light of future events. Author Buergenthal’s father, in response to the prophecy commented that “The only thing that fortune-teller knows that we don’t know is how to make money in these bad times.”

== Background ==
Thomas Buergenthal was born on May 11, 1934 in Ľubochňa, Czechoslovakia to Jewish parents of German and Polish extraction. Buergenthal is formerly a judge on the International Court of Justice at The Hague and is regarded as a specialist in international and human rights law. ''A Lucky Child'' has been translated into more than a dozen languages and features a Foreword by Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel. Ellen Keohane reported that when Thomas Buergenthal first sought an English-language publisher for this book, he was told, “Holocaust books don’t sell.” The book first came out in Germany in 2007 and became a bestseller there. It was finally published in the US in 2009.
