Born in Latvia, ... Eva especially remembers the chestnut trees, many of them over seventy-five feet tall. ... By 1939, Eva had met the love of her life, Rueben (Rudy) Gutman. She used to watch him in synagogue when he sang in the choir. A watchmaker like his father, Rudy was engaged to Eva ... All this loveliness was destroyed when first the Soviets and then the Germans occupied Liepaja. ... In 1943, the Liepaja Ghetto was liquidated and Eva, her mother, and Rudy were transported to labor camps. These labor camps were ill-heated; hair would freeze to the ground where they slept. Sanitary conditions were atrocious; the stench, suffocating. The work, back-breaking. The family survived the labor camps. They even survived Bergen-Belsen where Eva witnessed cannibalism before it was liberated by the British in March 1945"--Cover Page 4. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 600 10 Gutman, Eva |d1923- 600 10 Gutman, Rudy, |d1919-2011. 611 07 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958866 611 27 World War (1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01180924 650 0 Jews |zLatvia |vBiography. 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |zLatvia |vPersonal narratives. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |vPersonal narratives. 650 7 Jews. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00983135 648 7 1939-1945 |2fast 655 7 Biography. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 Personal narratives. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423843 655 7 Autobiographies. |2lcgft 655 7 Personal narratives. |2lcgft 700 1 McLoughlin-O'Donnell, Maryann, |eauthor. 852 0 |bscstacks |hDS135.L33 |iA143 2015
