Bøger af Irene Kucholick

This is a story about what it was like to grow up in a Germany, dominated by Adolf Hitler and feared Nazis; of what civilian life was like during the war that Hitler thrust upon us with a destructive fury; what life was like in our section of my native land--East Germany--when, after the war, we were released from the hand of the Nazis only to be seized at once by the equally strangling bonds of Communism.This complete set contains all three of Irene's memoirs from before WWII to her escape as well as additional photos, maps, and a historical timeline not available in previous releases.

In this final chapter of Irene's real-life adventures, Irene discards her identity as a boy and becomes a nurse in post war East Germany. She must answer questions about politics from the Examining Board but is able to enter nursing school where she is taught propaganda such as which diseases are capitalistic. Soon she walks the fine line between comrades at work eager to inform on her and planning a freedomless-future with her beau. Irene's own convictions and courageous missteps run her afoul of the Communist party, and she is forced into her last harrowing flight for the border and the freedom which lay in the west beyond the Iron Curtain. (Iron Curtain Memoirs Book 3)

From whistling bombs and hidden Jewish neighbors to a prison cell and her father's forced service on the Russian front, Irene tells us the true story of World War 2 through the eyes of a child. Growing up in eastern Germany, Irene first ran from the police when she was five years old. By the age of eight she remembers adults listening to radio speeches by Hitler. In the year that both Irene and Anne Frank turned 10, World War 2 broke out. Soon her friends wore yellow stars and the Nazi youth bullied children and adults alike who were of mixed heritage. Take a journey behind the lines to civilian life in My World War II Childhood.
