In March 1938, she was introduced on a blind date to a handsome young bachelor from Vienna, just weeks before Nazi soldiers burst in and confiscated his apartment and business at gunpoint. The two fell in love immediately, and, against the backdrop of the imminent danger of war, were married in Warsaw a month later. In November 1938, at my father's urging, they made the painful and wrenching decision to flee from Europe, unable to convince their families to join them. The journey took them to Cuba for two years; separated for a year because of U.S. immigration quotas, my mother's efforts helped my father gain entry to the U.S., where they were reunited and gratefully began their new life in January 1942.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 134\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 8.27 x 5.83 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 07, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53531677294899,"sku":"9781954176263","price":52.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/0746\/3731\/files\/FtfaZNhvVi9781954176263.webp?v=1782963572","url":"https:\/\/s3xxpj-vy.myshopify.com\/products\/and-that-was-the-last-time-i-saw-my-family-hardcover","provider":"The Celestial Starlit Phoenix ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
