Publishers cloth. 8vo. XIV, 218 pages. 24 cm. Publishers description: On September 27, 1939, less than four weeks after the Nazi invasion, Poland ceased to exist as a nation. Only three weeks had passed since ten-year-old Hanna Davidson had said goodbye to her father, Simon, and older brother, Kazik, who had been drafted and sent to defend Warsaw. Now she believed she would never see them again. Hanna and her mother, Sophia, an artist and intellectual, found themselves subjected to Hitlers efforts to dehumanize Polands Jewish population. There seemed no choice but to cling to what shreds of stability they could by submitting to a ruthless tyranny. But when they got word that Simon and Kazik were alive in Bialystok in the Soviet-occupied zone of Poland, Hanna and her mother made a fearful decisionthey would risk a harrowing escape from Nazi Poland into relatively safer Soviet territory. After a few hasty good-byes to family and with only the clothes on their backs, they left their apartmentjust one hour before soldiers would come for Sophia. If the two-percent chance of surviving the crossing were not daunting enough, then the Davidsons prospects in the Soviet Union should have been. For Simon Davidsons past as a prominent businessman (and capitalist) and political activism in the socialist Bund (an organization banned by the communists) branded him as undesirable. Moreover, he had been born in Russiaescaping years before by fooling Soviet authorities into presuming him deadand his presence could place those members of his family who remained behind in danger. So for the sake of their very livesand those of relatives they could never publicly acknowledgethe Davidsons would be compelled to invent and memorize not only their own new identities but also an extended family history. Moreover, avoiding persecution by the Soviet regime would entail struggling virtually every day to maintain a pretense of allegiance to Stalin. As recounted by Hanna, the Davidsons journey into the Soviet interior makes for an extraordinary story. More than a memoir of survival, the Davidsons story is clearly one of a family whose spirit could not be destroyed by persecution, war, famine, or political oppression.

Evicted from their home, they were forced into the Krakow ghetto and, later, into the nearby camp of Plaszow where Pempers knowledge of the German language was put to use by the sadistic camp commandant Amon Goth. Forced to work as Goths personal stenographer from March 1943 to September 1944an exceptional job for a Jewish prisonerPemper soon realized that he could use his position as the commandants private secretary to familiarize himself with the inner workings of the Nazi bureaucracy and exploit the system to his fellow detainees advantage.

After the war, Pemper was the key witness of the prosecution in the 1946 trial against Goth and several other SS officers.
