Cautiously I slipped to the end of the column, removing from my sleeve the unsewn Star of David armband and slipping it into my pocket. In no time I was on the sidewalk, part of the Polish crowd----now I was a Polish passenger on a Polish streetcar. I was no longer Zofia Rubenstein. The story of Zofia Sielczak had begun." Over forty years from this publication, Zofia fled the Warsaw ghetto and, disguised as a Pole, began her new existence. Thus began Sofia's new existence on the Aryan side of the city. This is also the story of her survival in the face of fanaticism, racism and war. 208 pages. 8vo - over 7?" - 9?" Tall. 1989, Hill & Wang Publishing, New York.
