From Ungvar to Beverly Hills - One Survivor's Journey oleh Alice Neuman Schoenfeld

“Run! Hide!” someone was shouting from the street. “The Germans are coming!” So begins Alice Neuman Schoenfeld’s remarkable tale of survival, From Ungvár to Beverly Hills: One Survivor’s Story. Indeed, Alice and her family spent more than two years of her childhood running and hiding. Her story—full of drama, tension, and insight—is a testimony to the human will to survive against all odds. With the startling perspective of a young girl caught up in events larger than she can grasp, Alice’s memoir brings the reader to wartime Europe, a time and place where the people close to her made life-or-death decisions every day. Equally enlightening and engaging are her descriptions of day-to-day life in Germany’s Displaced Persons Camps, where she became a Zionist and fell in love. With humor, integrity, and grace, Alice shares her inspiring and moving story of emerging from one of history’s darkest chapters and forging a new life in a new land.
