Escape from the Pit by Renya Kulkielko with foreword by Ludwig Lewisohn. Reprint of the 1947 edition.
This is a reprint edition of the original 1947 edition. Born near Kielce of ill-fated memory, Renya Kulkielko and her two brothers (now in Displaced Persons camps) are the sole survivors of a family of eight. Reading this tragic and exciting book will explain why she is fortunate in still having two brothers - and in being alive and at work in a Palestine kibbutz! World War II broke out when Renya Kulkielko was only fifteen. The days of horror that followed, her ghastly experiences in ghettos, concentration camps and prisons, are described in dramatic detail. The tale of her escapes from death - that can only be described as miraculous - and of her final departure for Eretz Israel gives us a book that fills our eyes with tears and our hears with pain. "Can human beings be guilty of such acts of studies and continuous cruelty as were the Nazis in Poland and throughout Europe?" we ask ourselves. The answer is yes: and also that humans can rise to such heights of steadfastness and heroism as did so many of the Jews described in Escape from the Pit. Reprint published in March/April 2012 and available in both hardcover and softcover editions. Total of 204 pages. ISBN: 978-1-61259-011-0 (soft cover); 978-1-61259-012-7 (hard cover).
