Beschreibung
"I was eleven in Prague, twelve in Terezín, thirteen in Auschwitz, fourteen on the death march," wrote Evelina Merová about her childhood, the author of the autobiographical Delayed Memories. However, the troubled fate of little Evelina does not end with Terezín, Auschwitz, and the death march, but rather begins... Liberation finds her in East Prussia, from where she is evacuated by a military train of the Red Army to the USSR. A military doctor takes the girl in and adopts her. This is followed by four decades of life in the Soviet Union, in war-torn and later rebuilt Leningrad, with a new identity and old memories that no one wants to hear. She remains alone with her trauma, having to come to terms with it, as there is no other choice and the future holds little promise... An extraordinarily captivating and moving book, first published in 2008, is now released in its third edition.
