Opis

The heart-warming story of a young girl, daughter of a Jewish father and a non-Jewish mother, growing up in wartime Vienna. Unable to join her father in America by the Nazi ban on Jewish emigration, Elisabeth struggles to survive, hiding her shame at having to wear the Star of David, supported only by her mother's unflagging love and fierce determination to protect her from harm.
An extraordinary story told in a simple unsentimental style that touches deeply.
Debi Alper, author and freelance editor
A young girl's account of Vienna during the war, well observed and detailed, and very poignant.
Trevor Bloom, author
Written in clear and vivid language without pathos, this is the story of a family torn apart by the turmoil of war. It conveys authentic images of contemporary history and of human fate.
Monika Zachhuber, tutor for autobiographical writing
