daughter we had always wanted: the story of Marta.

Marta was a young Jewish child who lived in Czortkow, Poland. At the age of eight, Marta was sent by her mother to live under an assumed identity with a non-Jewish family in Warsaw who risked their lives to protect her. After the Holocaust, Marta immigrated to Israel and began to rebuild her life despite various hardships. Today, Marta Goren lives in Rehovot, Israel and in this memoir, she recalls her childhood experiences before, during and after the Holocaust.
