Summary
Yehuda Koren, Eilat Negev: We were giants at heart - seven dwarfs from Auschwitz
"Mother Batia Ovitz feared that a lonely dwarf would be twice as helpless as a giant: her children's only strength, she believed, lay in their numbers." On her deathbed, she set a rule that she would have to follow for the rest of her life, and that rule would ultimately save their lives: 'Always stick together, for better or for worse. Never part, keep each other, live for each other.'' but they will receive them warmly; an occupation that will allow them to progress. The stage seemed like a perfect choice, because they could receive applause, attention, and respect on it. ..."
The artist and pious Transylvanian Jew - Shimson Isaac Ovitz - had ten children in the period from 1886 to 1921, seven of whom were dwarfs. The latter founded the Lilliput entertainment group, and from their village of Rožavlja, today in the north of Romania (near the border with Ukraine), they set out to conquer stages throughout Central Europe and became stars themselves. In 1944, deported were in Auschwitz, but not as ordinary Jews, but as patients of Dr. Josef Mengele, who, like many others with various deformities, performed many bestial and pseudoscientific experiments on them. Their deformity, paradoxically, saved their lives because Mengele, who above all cared about their scientific career, protected them from certain death, hoping that with their help, new scientific discoveries related to genetics would be made Belgium, and then they finally moved to Israel, where only death will separate them. Yehuda Koren (1946–) and Eilat Negev (1951–) are Israeli journalists and publicists. Their most famous work, At Heart We Were Giants, was a great success and was translated into more than ten languages
