Description
This bestseller, based on real events from World War II, is about how to:
— find the courage to look the truth in the eye and stop comforting yourself with hope that trouble will pass you by;
— dare to fight for your life when everyone else has accepted a bitter fate;
— after losing the people closest to you and your home, find the strength to move forward;
— continue to love life in conditions where, it seemed, even existence would be impossible.
A woman is capable of enduring a lot and overcoming a lot. The happiness of Shurka, who married the person she loved and gave birth to a daughter and a son, is interrupted when the Nazis invade Poland. Like all Jews, Shurka’s family is in danger. Staying in their native place becomes increasingly risky, and one day her husband makes a difficult decision: to leave everything behind and run from the ghetto where the Nazis have trapped them—into a dense, dark forest, which Shurka saw as a child on the horizon and which she feared to the point of death—where there will be neither food nor shelter nor medicine for her little weak son. But even as fate gradually takes away everything most dear to her, Shurka keeps her inner light and her ability to love.
