Description

Navigating between the two worlds of wartime experiences in Europe and new life in Australia, this moving memoir of a Holocaust survivor is imbued with an element of fiction. This deeply personal narrative travels from darkness to hope as the author loses his family at Auschwitz, spends the war in concentration camps, and ultimately emigrates to Australia.
