| book description |

In this emotional sequel to The Cage and To Life, Ruth Minsky Sender relates her struggle to build a new life in America, her battle to cope with her horrific memories of the Holocaust, and her decision to tell her story. In an effort to teach children about the Holocaust, Ruth Minsky Sender describes the impact of this horrifying event on her life and the lives of other survivors. She immigrated to America with her husband and young children in 1950, and even though she was not granted citizenship until 1952, she still participated in the democratic process of a senatorial election by passing out pamphlets and encouraging those around her to not take their freedom to choose their leaders for granted. Still, she is permanently changed by her experience—plagued by nightmares and painful reminders even in everyday moments, such as her children asking about their grandparents or having to show her identification papers when visiting Canada. This moving volume lays bare the unique pain of survivors in a way that “affectingly and courageously bridges the vast abyss between adult knowledge of the Holocaust and youthful need and desire to learn about this crucial subject” (Publishers Weekly).
