The Devil's Arithmetic is a book about the Holocaust. It was written by Jane Yolen and published in 1988. It was also made into a TV movie in 1999.
Hannah Stern is a modern-day Jew. She's tired of hearing her relatives talk about the past, and she is definitely not looking forward to this year's Passover Seder. But little does she know that this year, things will take a different turn. When Hannah opens the door to symbolically welcome the prophet Elijah, she is transported back in time to the year 1942, where World War II is raging in Poland. There, everyone is convinced that she is Chaya Abramowicz, who is just recovering from cholera. The strange remarks that she makes about the future and her inability to recognize her "aunt" Gitl and "uncle" Shmuel are blamed on the fever.
