I read an interesting memoir about a couple who survived the holocaust together deciding to die together in the end. Written by their granddaughter.
An Exclusive Love by Johanna Adorján
That is wild that they survived together. That is unheard of
They were hungarian jews and got separated during the war. If I remember right, the husband survived Mauthausen.
But 'unheard of' is quite exaggerated. While many people were left without surviving family, there were still many who found parts of their family and partners again after the war.
