After witnessing the suicide of her father and the murder of her mother and brother upon their arrival in Auschwitz, fifteen-year-old Hanka Kaudersova is forced to choose between working in a German military brothel on the eastern front or death.

Fifteen-year-old Hanka Kaudersov has ginger hair and clear, green eyes. When her family is deported to Auschwitz, her mother, father and younger brother are sent to the gas chamber. By a twist of fate, Hanka is faced with a simple alternative: follow her family, or work in an SS brothel behind the eastern front. She chooses to live, her Aryan looks allowing her to disguise the fact that she is Jewish. As the German army retreats from the Russian front, Hanka battles cold, hunger, fear, and shame, sustained by her hatred for the men she entertains, her friendship with the mysterious Estelle, and her fierce, burning desire for life. Lovely Green Eyes explores the compromises and sacrifices that an individual may make in order to survive, the way a woman can retain her identity in the face of appalling trauma, and the value of human life itself. This is a remarkable novel, which soars beyond nightmare, leaving the reader with a transcendent sense of hope.

A seductive and exotic photo-essay, "Green Eyes, the Greenest Fields", combines great literary references with stunning photographs of people from Africa, Asia, South America, India, Europe, and America, who all share the common trait of "green". Unlike other eye colors, such as brown or blue, green eyes are a genetic roll of the dice, which can appear within each generation, or each hundredth generation, and represent not only our common ancestries due to commerce and cultural exchange, but also our kinship with the Earth itself. This book is a fabulous photographic work that will keep you coming back for more.
