AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Letter from my Father is a powerful story of a young child's struggle to survive the loss of her parents, her name and identity. Dasia Black tells of her life's journey from her childhood in Nazi-occupied Poland to Stuttgart in liberated Germany, then to her teenage and adult years in Australia. A letter from her lost father, a message of hope for his daughter written from the abyss of destruction, provides the resilience she needs to move beyond bereavement and displacement to a purposeful life.' (From the publisher's website.)
