Krystyna Carmi's childhood in Obertyn was full of happy moments. Her childhood was filled with friends, both Polish and Ukrainian, and she attended a Ukrainian school. Krystyna Carmi was gifted with an extraordinary memory, and in this memoir, she vividly recounts the history of her family and her life before, during and after World War II. But her happy childhood did not last long; World War II changed it forever. A girl's survival in the face of pure evil: loss and persistence against all odds. However, the worst was still ahead for the Jewish community in Obertyn and for Krystyna's family. After the Germans ordered the Jews to move into the Kolomyja ghetto, Krystyna's family went to live in the ghetto. People died in the ghetto because of hunger and physical exhaustion; their bodies were collected on a platform placed in the street. These deaths did not escape the attention of the sensitive girl, and she'll be forever haunted by the faces of those who died. Her parents and her sister did not survive the family's attempt to escape the ghetto, but despite her loss, Krystyna struggled to stay alive; she was hiding in order to save her life, she faced hunger, thirst, fear for her life. Nevertheless, Providence has chosen for her to live, to be."-- Publisher's website. 600 10 $a Carmi, Krystyna. 650 0 $a Jews $z Obertyn $z Obertyn $v Biography. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $z Ukraine $v Personal narratives. 650 0 $a Jewish children in the Holocaust $z Ukraine. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $z Ukraine. 650 0 $a Hidden children (Holocaust) $z Ukraine $v Biography. 651 0 $a Obertyn (Ukraine) $x History. 650 6 $a Holocauste, 1939-1945 $z Ukraine $0 (CaQQLa)201-0128307 $v ReÌcits personnels. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0128307 650 6 $a Enfants juifs pendant l'Holocauste $0 (CaQQLa)201-0500396 $z Ukraine. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0500396 650 6 $a Holocauste, 1939-1945 $0 (CaQQLa)201-0500396 $z Ukraine. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0500396 650 6 $a Enfants cacheÌs (Holocauste) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378258 $z Ukraine $0 (CaQQLa)201-0500396 $v Biographies. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378258 650 7 $a Hidden children (Holocaust) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00955941 650 7 $a Jewish children in the Holocaust. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00982706 650 7 $a Jews. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00983135 651 7 $a Ukraine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01211738 651 7 $a Ukraine $z Obertyn. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01277913 648 7 $a 1939-1945 $2 fast 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423843 700 1 $a Stewart, Katarzyna, $e translator. 700 1 $a Carmi, Tali, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l WCPC115 $d 20230629023831.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A912039A22A911ED8A7D5B3833ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
