Only she survived. Only she escaped. Her experiences during her escape and afterwards in Communist Czechoslovakia were heartbreaking. Yet there is never a hint of self-pity In
Heda Margolius 's book. It rings with a defiance and deep understanding of the human predicament. Today she lives in the USA.
