Synopsis

Teresa was only nine years old when the Nazis came to her home and handed them an order to expel her family, giving them three days to pack their belongings. Suddenly they became homeless.
The author writes about her childhood in Poland during WWII. Her parents, Maria and Kazimierz Donimirski, were involved in social and educational activities to help keep Polish culture alive. This commitment to Polish sovereignty made them a target and kept the family on the move, hiding from the Nazi invaders. For five years of war, they kept changing their place of residence; hiding with extended family, friends or relying on the kindness of strangers.
After years of living the life of a refugee, the author’s struggles continued after the war as she endured a newly installed Communist government and raised a family in conditions that barely rose above subsistence level. She led a life defined by incredible perseverance and self-preservation.
This is an account of courage, resourcefulness, and the unyielding will to survive. This is a Polish story.
