This is the terrifying story of Maria Mandl, whose career from a country girl to a death "manager" shows that cruelty has no gender and that unimaginable evil can have a gentle face. Of the forty million German women, one third were members of the NSDAP and thirty thousand were members of the SS entourage. Every tenth employee of the surveillance staff in the concentration camp was a woman. This job created an opportunity for social advancement, enrichment, power, and opening to new fields of activity.

"In the linked stories of Kasia Jaronczyk's Lemons, the lives of Basia and her family are seen through a kaleidoscopic lens that follows them over twenty years from communist Poland, to their new home in Canada, then back to Poland, to make sense of everything that has happened in the interim. A young girl struggles with her awakening sexuality in an environment where corporal punishment and male dominance are the norm, and every man, even a close relative, can be a sexual threat; where absolute obedience is demanded as a sign of love; while on the playground she struggles to find her place a hierarchy of mean, tough, but charismatic girls. Her mother's return creates new conflicts as she fights over inheritance, offers harmful advice to friends, and accuses her daughter-in-law of a crime. Over time, the experiences of Basia and her mother Magda shift and refract the perspectives through which we view how younger and older women, and their relationships, are shaped by cultural and material changes in their lives." 130P/ Book
