Overview
- Summary
- This remarkable story tells how Fela Igielnik survived life in the Warsaw ghetto and the brutality of World War II. But more than that, it reveals the possibility of transforming even the darkest of experiences -- starvation, forced labor and marches, institutionalized hatred -- into opportunities for furthering education and understanding. Alternating between harrowing narrative and essayistic interpretation, this book represents the culminating story of a young woman who managed to survive, even at times flourish, under six years of Nazi brutality as well as many years of uncertainty and unanswered questions.
