In her own words and with her own beautiful paintings and drawings, artist Toby Knobel Fluek (1926-2011) lovingly unfurls a unique view of Jewish life. She introduces us to her village, to her family, to the people among whom they lived; she shows us how customs and holidays were observed; and, with both feeling and restraint, she illustrates how this long-enduring way of life was shattered by World War II. She depicts her family's experiences through Russian occupation and the devastation wreaked by the Nazis--and, finally, her new beginning in America.

New to this edition is a foreword by Rakhmiel Peltz, PhD, PhD, Founding Director of the Judaic Studies Program at Drexel University, which he led for twenty years.
