WARPEACE

In December 1944 the Germans quit France. I was just over a year old. My mother and I went from being homeless to renting a room, from near starvation to having three meals a day. For my mother, however, there was one more horrific revelation to come. The knowledge of the fate of her two small children who perished in the gas chamber of Auschwitz and of her husband who lingered a further seven months before he was also murdered. None of this I knew but somewhere inside me is etched my experiences during this time. It is the basis of WARPEACE.
