Description
This memoir begins with the recounting in loving detail the daily life of the shtetl (Stojanow), focusing on Yom Kippur in the years before Nazi occupation. He recalls the Yom Kippurs of his years of war, imprisonment, lonely wandering and eventual settlement in America. He demonstrates the progressive losses of all he held dear, his family and also his religious faith.
