Abstract
Miriam recalls her childhood at the end of the war, where Allied forces had bombed Romania, German forces were retreating, and Soviet forces were attempting an invasion; she was ill at the time, and her family was in hiding with non-Jewish families in and near Bucharest. She also recalls liberation/invasion of Bucharest by the Russians, what life was like under Russian rule, the issues involved with her family immigrating to Israel during the 1950s, and the persistent fear of Germans after the war ended.Description
