But it was not to be.
“I was four years old, and was told that the time had come for me to start helping around the house. Frau Steiger thrust a brush and dustpan into my hands and told me to sweep the stairs. I clutched the wooden brush in one hand and clumsily swept the dust into the dustpan held in my other hand, and then buffed the wood, feeling very proud of my accomplishments. But then Mutti came to inspect. ‘That’s no good! You didn’t sweep the corners!'”
How did a young, mistreated Swiss orphan who didn’t even know she was Jewish emerge from the darkness to establish a large chassidish family in London?
Survivor without a Number is an unforgettable story of the strength of the human spirit, and the grandeur of the Jewish soul.
