"Between the Pines: A Testament from Sobibor Death Camp, 1942-1943 and Survival Beyond" is a meticulously researched historical novel that balances documented fact with compelling narrative. Through the eyes of Jakub Rosenzweig, author Michael Green illuminates life inside Sobibor death camp while remaining faithful to historical truth.

The story begins in April 1942, as Jakub is transported to Sobibor. Selected for work detail while his family perishes, he witnesses the systematic murder of thousands. The camp's layout, personnel, and killing processes are depicted with documentary precision based on survivor testimonies and trial records.

At the heart of the narrative is Jakub's relationship with Eva Weiss, a young woman from Bratislava. Their cautious romance represents the preservation of humanity amid systematic dehumanisation. Eva's detailed documentation later helps bring perpetrators to justice.

The story builds towards the famous Sobibor uprising of October 14, 1943, led by Soviet POW Alexander Pechersky. Green reconstructs the only successful mass escape from a Nazi death camp with military precision, showing how Jewish prisoners managed to overcome seemingly impossible odds.

The narrative continues through Jakub and Eva's time as partisan fighters, their journey to Palestine, and their role in building Israel. Through their eyes, we witness the Eichmann trial, the Six-Day War, the Yom Kippur War, and the Entebbe rescue operation.

What distinguishes this book is its unwavering commitment to historical accuracy while making that truth emotionally accessible. Green draws on survivor testimonies, trial documents, and archaeological evidence to ensure authenticity. The fictional characters serve as witnesses to real events, their experiences drawn from actual survivor accounts.
