Memoirs of Katz, born Bauer in 1922, who was raised in Buczacz. Her family suffered from grass-roots antisemitism from both Ukrainians and Poles. Describes the German occupation in July 1941, and a massacre during which her twin brother was killed. Katz and her sister were taken for forced labor locally, and her two younger brothers were saved from deportation through bribery. In November 1942 the family went into hiding, moving from place to place to avoid Jew hunters. However, in March 1944 Ukrainian thugs found them and killed the father, sister, and two brothers; only Katz escaped, and was rescued by Poles. Temporary Russian liberation was followed by a return of the Nazis, after which Katz hid for four months in the attic of her own home. Upon final liberation, she left Buczacz; on the train she met her future husband, whose surival story is briefly told. They settled in the USA.
