Holocaust survivor, Irene Miller, will take you on a survivor’s journey in which you sleep in the winter under an open sky on no man’s land, freeze in a Siberian labor camp where bears come to your door front, survive on boiled grass or boiled onions, shiver with malaria and spend years in orphanages. When these experiences are over, you will wonder how a child with this background can grow up to become a positive, creative, accomplished woman with a joy of living and love to share. Signed copies of Irene’s book, Into No Man’s Land: A Historical Memoir, will be available at the discounted price of $15.00.
