Peter Kubicek:
I have just ordered your book Memories of Evil. Would you recommend I read Memories of Evil: Recalling a World War II Childhood first? I believe we may be related via a family from Misslitz (Miroslav). I am hoping to learn more from your book. I admire you greatly for having the courage to write about such a difficult rime in your life.

"Memories of Evil -- Recalling a World War II Childhood" is the correct title of my book.
It is most exciting to hear that we may be related via a family from Misslitz - later known as Miroslav. My mother, Ilka, nee Kobler, came from Miroslav.
My mother had many relatives there: many Baders, many Horners. Whenever I visited there as a child, I stayed with my grandmother, Cecilie Bader and everybody in town seemed to know me.
My mother, my grandmother and I were deported together to Bergen-Belsen. For me five other concentration camps followed. My mother survived Bergen-Belsen while my grandmother died there.
Please let me know more after you read my book.

I've just finished reading your book and really enjoyed it. I read lots of Holocaust memoirs but not many about the Jews in Slovakia. I'm very interest to here about what your biggest challenges were in adapting to normal life in the US after everything you went through. Best wishes, Ruby
