She recalls working in her brother's textile factory in Łódź; her mother's death in 1938; German invasion; a temporary move to Warsaw; joining a resistance movement after hearing of the mass killing of an entire village including her brothers; serving as a resistance courier; returning to Nowy Korczyn thinking it safer in a small town; disagreements between the Judenrat and resisters; hiding with a non-Jewish friend during an aktion in 1942; and obtaining false papers as a Pole. Mrs. W. recounts joining her sister and nephew in a village; working as a maid and in a HASAG factory in Częstochowa; sending provisions to her sister; liberation by Soviet troops in January 1945; joining her sister in Łódź; fleeing to Germany via Prague to escape antisemitism; marriage and her son's birth in Paris; emigrating to Israel; the birth of a handicapped son; and relocating to the United States so he could be treated. This reflective and insightful testimony contains many details and discussions of events; the way her memory functions; others people's responses and stories; her difficulty communicating her experiences; and her relationships with her sons. 540 This tape may not be used for publication until the year 2000. 500 Additional written material available in the repository. 562 |e3 copies: |b3/4 in. master; |b3/4 in. dub; |band 1/2 in.
