More about the book
Set in the spring of 1939, the Kurc family navigates the challenges of impending war while striving to maintain a sense of normalcy in Radom, Poland. Conversations at their Seder table focus on personal milestones rather than the escalating dangers for Jews in Europe. As the situation worsens, each family member embarks on a perilous journey across the globe, driven by an indomitable will to survive. Their story is one of resilience, hope, and the pursuit of safety amidst chaos.
