Reviews

should be in all libraries [with collections about the Holocaust]...Bergman's family lived for a time in the 'Aryan' section of Warsaw, his survival dependent upon the black market to earn a living. Of particular interest is Bergman's account of walking among the [Aryan] population and the fear this engendered in him --<i>Library Journal</i>; engrossing memoir --<i>Washington Jewish Week.</i>
