Beschreibung:
Michel Mielnicki was born in 1927 in Wasilkow, a few kilometers from Bialystok in north-eastern Poland. After surviving the Holocaust, he emigrated to Canada where, from his home base in Montreal, he soon became known as "Mr. Michel", one of Canada's premier fur fashion designers. He now makes his home in Vancouver, BC where he is involved in Holocaust education.
This profoundly honest Holocaust memoir describes the transformation of everyday anti-Semitism into the Holocaust nightmare. Central to the story are the years Mielnicki spent in the camps of Auschwitz-Birkenau, Buna, Mittelbau-Dora and Belsen. Mielnicki's account is a harrowing yet powerfully redeeming human drama. Includes over 30 black and white photos and maps.
