Opis: The Girl in the Green Sweater - Krystyna Chiger

In 1943, with Lvov's 150,000 Jews having been exiled, killed, or forced into ghettos and facing extermination, a group of Polish Jews daringly sought refuge in the city's sewer system. The last surviving member of this group, Krystyna Chiger, shares one of the most intimate, harrowing and ultimately triumphant tales of survival to emerge from the Holocaust. "The Girl in the Greeen Sweater" is Chiger's first-person account of the fourteen months she spent with her family in the fetid sewers of Lvov. It is also the story of Leopold Socha, the group's unlikely savior. A Polish Catholic and former thief, Socha risked his life to help Chiger's underground family survive. A moving memoir of life under unimaginable circumstances, "The Girl in the Greeen Sweater" is ultimately a tale of intimate survival, friendship, and redemption. "Touches us in an unexpected way, revealing highs and lows in man's capacity for evil, as well his capacity to love life and other human beings." - Naomi Ragen, Author of the Saturday Wife and The Covenant "With a powerful story and a keen voice, Chiger's Holocaust survivor's tale is a worthy and memorable addition to the canon."
