Out of the Shadows

Meer over het boek

The memoir intertwines the harrowing experiences of Piri Piroska Mendelovitz Bodnar and Zoltan Bodnar, who fell in love in a Displaced Persons camp after World War II. Their stories reflect the trauma of being Jewish apprentices in Hungary during the Nazi invasion of 1944, which led to their forced confinement in ghettos and labor camps. This dual narrative not only highlights their survival and resilience but also captures the profound impact of their shared history and the hope for renewal that emerged in the aftermath of the war.
