All of these rise to the surface, bearing with them memories and emotions previously hidden away in the shoebox. "I had no intention of writing a book. I had no need to write a story in general nor a story about my family and the Holocaust in particular. But life being what it is, sometimes things happen in mysterious, even surprising ways.
