This is an amazing, and true story about a Vienesse woman in the time before, during and after WWII. She was able to survive the war by being a "submarine" : a Jewish citizen portraying to be Aryan, right under the Gestapo's noses. I have never heard of this, so I read it, and I was just amazed at this recollection about the war. Very good read!!!

Tabby-cat-owner picked this book from the Non fiction VBB. I thoroughly liked this memoir, and I found it to be an amazing story. I hope others will also.

I did not realize that I had never made a journal entry for this book. I received this book about a year ago from debbie4osu of Carrollton, Texas. I am almost finished reading it. It is a book that is hard to put down. It is a very moving and interesting book.

I am sorry that I forgot to make a journal entry for this book, debbie4osu.

This is a fantastic book. It is a real-life memoir but there is a lot of suspense and pathos in this book. I learned a lot about life. This book really took you on a journey from the author's rather carefree and fun childhood in Vienna to the slippery slope of Nazi domination. The book got even more interesting toward the end as I read about life as WWII was ending and the transition to, in this case, Russian occupation in East Berlin.

This book has been mailed to hyphen8 of Honolulu, Hawaii. She requested this book from the Holocuast VBB that I have organized.

I hope that you enjoy this book, hyphen8.
