Memoirs of a Jew who was born in Poland in 1922 and emigrated to France in 1930. In October 1941 he was arrested, sent to Drancy, but released after one month. His parents were deported in July 1942; he was caught several days later and sent to Drancy once more. In August his three small siblings arrived there, and they were all deported to the East. Prochownik worked in Ratibor and other labor camps in Upper Silesia. In October 1943 he was transferred to Blechhammer, near Auschwitz. In January 1945 he participated in a death march to Gross-Rosen, was transported by train to Weimar, and walked to Buchenwald, where he was liberated in April 1945. After the war he returned to France. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism - The Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
