Abstract:
This memoir is a reflection about the events following the Anschluss of Austria to Nazi-Germany, an attempt to understand what was not comprehensible to the little boy the author was by that time. It shows how deeply the author's fate informed his later life, e.g. the decision to put his daugther to a Yeshiva, to provide her with a Jewish identity he never felt for himself. This manuscript is a valuable addendum to the more fact based memoir written by Mr. Wolf A. Popper nine years earlier. He states that it took 50 years for his memories to come back to his mind. Unfortunately, the memoir is incomplete.
