A fictionalized account of the author's life during the Holocaust. Kuper was born in Minsk-Mazowiecki, Poland, in 1930. Describes the German occupation and life in the ghetto, where her father perished. In late 1940, Kuper's mother arranged for her to hide on a farm, but she soon had to leave. She returned to the town, but found that the ghetto had been liquidated. Posing as a non-Jew, Kuper worked on various farms; she entered a convent in 1942 and remained there until the liberation. Her mother and three sisters perished in the Holocaust. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism - The Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
