Synopsis

This book contains powerful, thought provoking words from the sole survivor of a family lost to the Holocaust. This compilation of poems is written from the heart of a woman who has taken the lessons of her childhood and applied them to life. The ethical treatment of others is central to this work. These poems, which were uncovered recently, must be read. Here you find a spiritual journal from a childhood in a small village, survival from the horrors of the Concentration Camps, through Liberation, then Freedom, to a life in America dedicated to living and sharing her wisdom. Itka has chosen love as the basis of her being.
