| Summary |
Born into an aristocratic, Catholic, Austro-Hungarian family, Maria lived a privileged, if isolated, childhood. But her fairy-tale life disintegrated just before Christmas 1939, when she was kidnapped by the Nazis. Maria came to know all the horrors of war and its aftermath: forced labor, starvation, beatings, and more. |
