The unforgettable true story of a girl born in the Kovno Ghetto,
and the dangerous risk her parents faced in defying the barbarous
Nazi law prohibiting childbirth. Elida Friedman was not supposed to
have been born. In the Kovno Ghetto in Lithuania, Nazi law forbade
Jewish women from giving birth. Yet despite the fear of death, Dr.
Jonah Friedman and his wife Tzila, choose to bring a daughter into
the world, a little girl they name Elida--meaning non-birth in
Hebrew. To increase their child's chance of survival, the Friedmans
smuggle the baby out of the ghetto and into the arms of a
non-Jewish farm family when Elida is only three months old. It is
the beginning of a life marked by constant upheaval. When the Nazis
raze the entire Kovno Ghetto, Jonah and Tzila are among those
killed. Their only child is left orphaned and alone, dependent on
the kindness of strangers. Despite her circumstances, Elida grows
up, changing families, countries, continents, and even names,
countless times. Surviving the war and the Holocaust that stole her
parents, the young woman never gives up hope. In her lifelong
pursuit to find love and belonging, she works to rebuild her
identity and triumph over her terrible circumstances. A moving,
powerful chronicle of overcoming impossible odds, Elida, the
Forgotten Ghetto Girl is the true story of one unforgettable woman
and her will to survive.
