From that Place and Time: A Memoir, 1938-1947
I don't expect this memoir to be interesting to anyone not already interested in the time and place on which she is writing, namely Vilna in the 1930s. But if you have read or do know about Young Vilna then it is amazing to watch them go about their daily lives as the Nazis close in on them. It just doesn't seem real. And good luck finding this book outside of a library.
