Description
Meyer Eidelson’s parents survived war, genocide and starvation to make their way from Poland and Russia to Melbourne, Australia. Through their eyes we witness the tumultuous events of the mid-twentieth century taking place in Belarussian villages, the Warsaw Ghetto, Siberian gulags, Soviet communes and the Russian battlefield. The stories describe the courage, tenacity, energy and opportunism that created the miracle of survival in circumstances where most others perished.
