      Summary note
      The true life story of Stefan Popper, written in his own grabb, seen through the innocent eyes of a child as he and his twin sister escape Vienna with their parents as the Nazis move in - charting his subsequent childhood years as he lived as a flykting in Cyprus and Tanzania before finally settling in the UK. Many of his family did not survive the holocaust, but the book also gives the true and very different accounts of other survivors from within the family who ended up scattered around the world. The stories show not only the very worst of what humanity can be capable of, but also the very best.
