About This Book
From the back cover:
On September 1, 1939, Bertha Ferderber lived quietly in Cracow, untouched by the course of world events. On April 15, 1945 when the British troops liberated the emaciated in-mates of Bergen-Belsen, she became a survivor.
In her remarkable memoirs, she leads us from one place to another, in flight, in hiding, in narrow escapes, on to the struggle for the rescue of her children. Naked, barefoot, stripped of all- yet never abandoning her human image. She describes the life and demise of the Galician shtetl in unforgettable pages. "There was once a shtetl in Galicia and it is no more," she mourns with nostalgia and grief.
