Οι ιστορίες που ακολουθούν είναι μαρτυρίες ζωής, θραύσματα μνήμης και σπαράγματα ψυχής. Αφηγούνται το δράμα του ξεριζωμού, την αγωνία της επιβίωσης και την αστείρευτη δύναμη της ανθρώπινης θέλησης που πηγάζει μέσα από τη βαρβαρότητα και αισχύνη. Είναι ιστορίες προσφύγων, ανθρώπων που αναγκάστηκαν να εγκαταλείψουν τα πατρογονικά τους εδάφη, τα σπίτια τους, τις ζωές τους, για να αναζητήσουν καταφύγιο σε μια νέα πατρίδα και προσφέρονται σ' αυτό το βιβλίο δίχως προκατάληψη.
Μέσα απ' αυτές τις σελίδες θα ταξιδέψουμε πίσω στον χρόνο, σε μια εποχή γεμάτη αγωνία και αναταραχές. Θα γνωρίσουμε οικογένειες που έζησαν την τραγωδία του εκτοπισμού, την απώλεια αγαπημένων προσώπων, την αβεβαιότητα του μέλλοντος. Θα ακούσουμε τις φωνές τους, θα νιώσουμε τον πόνο τους, αλλά και την ακατάλυτη ελπίδα τους.
