Holocaust Survivor Testimony?

Hello all. It's the start of the new semester and I need some help choosing a book if you all don't mind. I'm taking a history of the holocaust class and one of the assignments is took write a book review of a holocaust suvivor's testimony. The book has to be approved by the professor first. The problem is that everyone in the class has to do a different book and with +100 students in the class you see my problem. Popular ones like Night and Maus are not allowed. Have any of you read a suvivor's testimony that you enjoyed and is maybe not at well known? He posted a list of some of the books that he has approved in the past: http://www.clas.ufl.edu/users/ggiles/holcst/testilst10.pdf Has anyone read any of them? Length doesn't matter to me; I'm just looking for something that is well written and powerfully moving. Thanks for any and all suggestions!
