Looking for a book I've only heard of, not read (sopuli.xyz)

Hi!

Looking for a book that I know very little about. I heard from a Dan Carlin podcast a while ago about some stories compiled into a book. It was about people's memoirs of pre-WWII Germany, like 1920s and 30s, and specifically them trying to and sometime successfully leaving Germany for various other places.

Sorry, I have very few details about it. Any chance someone knows what it is?

Thanks!

I know of this one because it is pretty famous https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/They_Thought_They_Were_Free

I've read people's memoirs of escaping that regime but not a book about the memoirs of that period as a subject.
