Anya

Now middle-aged, Anya looks back to her life in Poland before and during the war. There was the happiness of a close-knit Russian Jewish family, of friendships struck up in medical school, of fancy dress balls, love affairs, marriage and birth. A world swept away in the firestorm of the Holocaust.

Bewildered and numbed, the Jewish community struggled with the growing nightmare - invasion, occupation, ghettos, cattle trucks, and finally Kaiserwald, where the living came to envy the dead. With cold, raw audacity, Anya ran, hid, and fought to save herself and her child. She survived and escaped to America, only to find that, as time passed, the wounds grew deeper. And now it takes an act of courage to remember just how it was.
