Kurzfassung:
Several short memoirs written by Margot Friedlaender. Recollections of her childhood shadowed by the divorce of her parents. School years during the Nazi time in Germany. Margot started an apprenticeship to become a dressmaker in a salon. Circumstances of life in Nazi Germany and recollections of Kristallnacht. Position with the Jewish "Kulturbund". In 1941 the "Kulturbund" was closed by the Nazi authorities and Margot was forced to work in a factory. Fervent attempts to emigrate failed. In 1943 her mother and brother were deported to Auschwitz. Margot went into hiding. Experiences of life in underground. After her discovery in 1944 she was fortunate to be deported to Theresienstadt, where she met a former colleague from the Kulturbund, Adolf Friedlaender. They both managed to survive and were liberated by the Russian army. They got married in Theresienstadt in June of 1945. After a year in the DP Camp Deggendorf, they finally left for New York in June of 1946.
