When the Nazis invaded Czechoslovakia in 1939, Vera Schiff and her
family were sent to Theresienstadt. Touted as the "model ghetto"
for propaganda purposes, as well as to deceive Red Cross
inspectors, it was in fact a holding camp for famous Jews--in case
the world was to inquire. For the rest, however, it was the last
stop on the way to the gas chambers. Those "lucky" enough to remain
faced slave labor, starvation and disease. Shiff's intimate
narrative of endurance recounts her family's three years in
Theresienstadt, the challenges of life under postwar communism, and
her escape to the nascent and turbulent state of Israel.
