She recounts her parents' successful business; the bombing of Przemyśl in 1939; Soviet occupation; her father's arrest as a capitalist (she never saw him again); arrest with her mother and brother; their deportation to Qostanaĭ, then to Novosibirsk in July 1940; German invasion; their escape to Samarqand via Tashkent; hardships and hunger; her mother arranging to send her and her brother on a children's transport to Palestine in 1942; her brother's help throughout the journey; living in an orphanage in Tehran; assistance from Jewish organizations and individual local Jews; truck transport to Karachi, then by boat to Suez; and their warm welcome in Palestine in February 1943. Mrs. R. recalls separation from her brother when placed in a Jerusalem orphanage; assistance from Henrietta Szold; moving with her brother to a kibbutz; her discomfort with kibbutz life; her mother's arrival in 1946; moving to her mother's and stepfather's home; military service; marriage; and emigration to the United States.
