Presents 70 drawings (done in 2003-04) by Kujawski, accompanied by brief explanations. A Łódź ghetto survivor, Kujawski depicts specific incidents and scenes from his Holocaust experiences. Rumkowski appears in several drawings. There are several references to Kujawski himself and his family (his twin brother, and his aunt who refused to hand over her child to the Nazis), including probable images of himself. Besides Łódź, there are drawings from Auschwitz and the Kaufering labor camp.
