Agatha Nesaule's book “Woman in Amber,” highly praised by critics, went through two editions in America (1995, 1997), and was awarded the Wisconsin Librarians Outstanding Achievement Award (1995) and the American Book Award (1996). Translated into German, Swedish, Danish and Latvian. “The horrors of war are only the beginning of the story. Everyone who was destined to survive had to learn to live with this terrible knowledge. I have lived for more than forty years, experiencing shame, anger and guilt. Other people's stories, psychotherapy, dreams and love saved me. My story is proof that healing is possible. I pray that wars will disappear and I hope that all their victims will be understood. I want these people to be given tenderness and love even after the atrocities have stopped.”
