In September 1939, as a ten-year-old boy, Michał Giedroyć watched the Russian security police seize his home in eastern Poland. His father, a senator and judge, was imprisoned while his mother, with Michał and his two sisters, were left on the streets of the local town to fend for themselves. This book tells their story.
