When Motherland Rejects Her Children: A story of survival behind the lines of combat

This book is a confession of a man who went through a German concentration camp. He does not pretend to be a hero. He just describes how he survived. This very essence of "how" is hard to imagine when you live an ordinary human life.He tells about his escapes, his life in a limbo, about beatings, disease, hunger, and hard work. He tells how the most delicious food on earth could be grilled pig skins from the leather factory, and how awesome the life appeared when there was less beatings and a bit more food.What saved him was his never-ending optimism, willingness to take life as it is, ability to make decisions right on the spot, and of course luck.
