"The music and words of twenty-five songs of the Holocaust--defiant and mournful-- as they were sung in the Nazi camps and ghettos." From the back cover.
Shoshana Kalish and her family were sent to Auschwitz, but only Shoshana survived, and these songs had given hope in the midst of despair.

First words

PROLOGUE
As children, we were taken almost daily to a park lush with old, wild chestnuts, acacias, linden, and other trees, with fragrant flowering bushes and shrubs, with songbirds, with creeping plants that grew over footpaths, and with benches in shady, hidden nooks.
