Preface
This is not an autobiography; it is a memoir that focuses on the six years, 1933 to 1939, I spent as a boy in Nazi Berlin. Because I have aimed at more than a superficial recital of the outrages I witnessed and the insults I swallowed, I have surrounded my principal plot with chapters in which I diagnose just what I brought to that experience and what deposits it left on me. This book records one man's story, the story of a poisoning and how I dealt with it. But after listening to scores of refugees across the years, I am confident that what I have to say has more general application.
