OverviewJanina Fischler embarks on perhaps the most courageous of all her journeys to date. Forced to grow up quickly in a world which had no room for Jewish children certainly not orphans Janina displays a remarkable will to survive, a need to live, which shines through every one of her wartime experiences. Here, Janina recounts her escapades, posing as an Aryan orphan, moving from house to house and away from her beloved Cracow to the sometimes more anonymous countryside, always on the run from one thing that truly spelled terror. Striving to reveal the truth, but fighting with herself lest she tarnish the names of those people whose lives were so cruelly terminated, Janina deals honestly and bravely with those she lost and presents the reader with a valued glimpse into her life and the lives of those she loved and lost.
