Abstract
Rose recalls her childhood in Strassburg, France, during the war and her family's efforts relocating to avoid conflict. After spending much of 1940 moving across France with her family, a connection was finally made that allowed them to escape to Spain and eventually emigrate to Uruguay and begin a new life within the large Jewish community there. Eventually, Rose marrie and moved to Chile, and ethen to Israel with her remaining family and married family. She discusses the luck and planning skills of her parents in order to preserve their family, and the guilt she feels over her escape from the Holocaust.Description
