I was HORRIFIED yesterday! Panic gave me a good slap across the face as well at what I saw. I was just in the store to pick up a flat of toilet paper and a 100o pack of gum, when out of the corner of my eye I saw them. Halloween costumes! Are you kidding me!!??? Yes, I am yelling a lot in this post, but you can understand why I am so upset. I am by no means ready to take on the holidays. I am still doing laundry from our summer vacation last week. I can’t possible handle the holiday rush and bumble right now. GEEZ!! I still need to mow the lawn! Oh golly…I better buy the school supplies now before they go from binders and pencils to skeletons and ghosts.

The Strange Ways of Providence In My Life: A Holocaust Survivor Story (World War 2)
Krystyna Carmi
4.6 Stars (52 Reviews)
Genre: History | Biographies & Memoirs

FREE for a limited time

God looks after the orphans. Happy childhood, horrors of war and miraculous rescue of the only child survivor from Obertyn.

Krystyna Carmi’s childhood was full of happy moments in the family house. Her childhood was filled with friends, both Polish and Ukrainian girls, that played games with her. She attended a Ukrainian school, participated in school celebrations; she lived a normal, everyday life. In her memoire, published after many years of silence, Krystyna Carmi shows the history of her family and her life. The book contains more than 100 pictures, taken by Krystyna’s father, a professional photographer, and sent it to their family in Israel before the war. Krystyna was gifted with an amazing memory and as such was able to recall the atmosphere of those days, describing in details the appearance of a household; and if that wasn’t enough, Krystyna Carmi writes about something very rare, the smells she remembered from childhood. Walking with her on the streets of pre-war Obertyn, we get to know the Jews, the Ukrainians, and the Poles and the social and material conditions of their lives, as well as their names and surnames. Krystyna Carmi paints a psychological portrait of these people; she writes about how they dressed, what they ate, what their attitude towards others was, and above all, towards God. She writes about things seemingly trivial, however when looking back, they are incredibly significant.

But the happy childhood did not last long. The first days of war brought overall fear and panic, the entrance of Red Army soldiers to Obertyn, the arrest of Polish patriots, liquidation of Jewish shops, the gradual growth into a more difficult reality of occupation, the Hungarian army in Obertyn, Jews murdered by Ukrainians in the local towns, incredible photos of the members of the Jewish community, drowning in the Dniester by Ukrainians. However, the worst was still ahead of the Jewish community in Obertyn and her family.
