Description
Summary:Memoirs of a Jew born in 1928 in Berlin. In 1938 his parents sent him to the Netherlands. He stayed in several homes until fall 1939, and then joined his parents in Belgium. In May 1940 they tried to escape to France but did not succeed; they returned to Antwerp. Between January-April 1941 they stayed in the nearby village of Alken, and afterwards they lived in miserable conditions in Brussels. Kessler's mother was arrested by the Gestapo in July 1942 and deported to Auschwitz. He and his father attempted to escape. His father was arrested in winter 1942-43; Kessler went into hiding with a Belgian family, and was then transferred to several Jewish orphanages. During the last two months before the liberation he lived again with a Belgian family. In 1945 he emigrated to Palestine
