The book starting at the outset of World War II spans seven decades across seven countries: Hungary (Transylvania), Israel, France, Great Britain, Italy, Portugal & the U.S.A. It is a book that deftly chronicles love, persecution, triumph, adversity, turmoil, peace, affairs, partings, collaborations, betrayals, births and deaths. It is a veritable history lesson told with much humor, insights, incisiveness and empathy. She knew and interacted with many a famous person in multiple countries, in multiple scenarios. Now in her seventies she is an indefatigable and much sought after inspirational speaker to the younger generation - her message always that of love, tolerance, acceptance and inclusiveness given the experiences to the contrary she experienced firsthand."--Anura Gurugé, P.
