In this amazing true story, one family survives the liquidation of the Lvov ghetto by hiding for 14 months in filthy, rat-infested sewers.
The seven-year-old narrator misses no detail of ghetto life, and draws especially sharp portraits of three unforgettable personalities: the insane cruelty of the ghetto’s Nazi commander, her own father’s immense courage and endless resourcefulness, and the unfailing kindness of the Christian sewer worker who hid the family, brought them food, and eventually led them to safety.
Quantities are limited.
