Synopsis
Marysia and Maniek fall in love and marry. In building a life together, they are challenged with extreme poverty and hardship. Raising their children into a slowly brightening future, their lives are brutally shattered when Maniek is sent to war and is killed on the first day by the invading Russians. This is truly a remarkable novel, as Marysia is the author's mother and this is her story of her torment and tears.
