Elida Friedman was not supposed to have been born. In the Kovno Ghetto in Lithuania, Nazi law forbade Jewish women from giving birth. Yet despite the fear of death, Dr. Jonah Friedman and his wife Tzila, choose to bring a daughter into the world, a little girl they name Elida-meaning non-birth in Hebrew. To increase their child's chance of survival, the Friedmans smuggle the baby out of the ghetto and into the arms of a non-Jewish farm family when Elida is only three months old. It is the beginning of a life marked by constant upheaval. When the Nazis raze the entire Kovno Ghetto, Jonah and Tzila are among those killed. Their only child is left orphaned and alone, dependent on the kindness of strangers. Despite her circumstances, Elida grows up, changing families, countries, continents, and even names, countless times. Surviving the war and the Holocaust that stole her parents, the young woman never gives up hope. In her lifelong pursuit to find love and belonging, she works to rebuild her identity and triumph over her terrible circumstances. A moving, powerful chronicle of overcoming impossible odds, Elida, the Forgotten Ghetto Girl is the true story of one unforgettable woman and her will to survive"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Katzman, Elida. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $z Kaunas $z Kaunas $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Jewish children in the Holocaust $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 941 $a 3 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240524011109.0 952 $l OCPA943 $d 20240509010845.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20240427010058.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=26C1A64602C911EFB04B503F57ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
