On both sides of the wall Book

There are many stories of the horrors of the Second World War. The devastation is well documented and the atrocities are indisputable. But what about the courage of the people who lived their new daily lives, helping others and facing the possibility of being caught? What of the mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers who helped eachother through what would be labeled as the world's worst inhumanity ever recorded? Irena Bakowska's courage was not in her daily routine during those trying times. Her courage lies in writing her memoir. Written as a story, Irene takes the reader with her on a journey that would forever live in her mind, heart and soul. This is a positive yet undeniably powerful story of how one woman lived through a time in our history that we all wish would never have occurred.
