About the Book
Written in two parts, A Family Chronicle tells of the episodes once forgotten but were brought back to light in the first part.The author reconstructs remembrances of his own childhood. The second part contains testimonies of his family members, who, like him, had to leave their hometown in 1945 when the Russian steamroller threatened to overrun his town. This memoir documents these events so that they may not be forgotten by the next generation. The cruelty of war and his terrible consequences is also given some thought.
