Description
This anthology expresses child survivors memories and reactions to a wide range of experiences in many European settings, from Holland, Belgium, Italy, Germany, Greece, Yugoslavia, Poland, and France. The writers recall being on the run between different countries, escaping over mountains, hiding and even sometimes forgetting their Jewish identities in convents and rescuers homes and hovels, basements and attics. Some were left on their own; others found themselves embroiled in rescuer family conflicts
