Lazan's unforgettable memoir recalls the devastaing years that shaped her childhood. Following Hitler's rise to power, the Blumenthal family were caught in the nightmare that was Nazi Germany. For the next several years they were forced to live in refugee, transit and prison camps--including the notorious Bergen-Belsen in Germany. Somehow they managed to stay together and, although their story is one of horror and hardship, it is also one of courage, hope and the will to survive. Photos.
