Am I a Holocaust Survivor?

This vivid, moving, and beautifully written story depicts the life and struggles of a Jewish girl in Germany (and later, England) during the late 1930s and the beginnings of World War II. Every word is true. Author Dorothee E. Krahn writes: "Much has been written about the Holocaust. People like Eli Wiesel have described the atrocities in all their gory detail. My purpose in this story was to draw attention to a somewhat different aspect: The erosion of a protective judiciary, and the gradual disappearance of the free press, all which eventually led to the total loss of personal liberties and with that, ultimately, of personal responsibilities. 'We followed orders' —- let it be a warning for our times."
