'After Stutthof Concentration Camp What Hope?' is a collection of poems written by Dora Love in 1945, in the period following her survival of Stutthof concentration camp. Dora had been diagnosed with tuberculosis and was kept in isolation.

During this time she was visited reguarly by Frank Love, a Public Saftey Officer working for the British Army, who she would later marry. Frank gave her a few pens and pieces of paper which Dora used to write down poems. Frank kept a number of these and many years later they were collected together and eventually published in 2010.

'After Stutthof Concentration Camp What Hope?' is available from Red Lion Bookstore, High Street, Colchester, priced £6.99. Proceeds from the sale of the book will go toward the Dora Love Prize.
