2 comments about In Search Of A Warm Room.
- This is an excellent book for anyone wanting to know what life was like during WWII for the everyday ethnic German. Although not widely known, the everyday German suffered at the hands of Nazi Germany. This is a compelling read of suffering and triumph of the human spirit. It is a must read for all students of WWII.
- Nach den Türkenkriegen war der südliche Teil des Habsburgerreiches verwüstet. Dessen Neubesiedlung durch deutsche Auswanderer führte zu einer der größten Kolonisationen der Neuzeit. Eines dieser Gebiete war die Batschka, dem Land zwischen Donau und Theiss. Die Vorfahren der Autorin wanderten großteils unter Joseph II. dorthin aus und wurden in der größten Gemeinde dieser Phase - Tscherwenka - angesiedelt. Deren Nachfahren lebten dort bis zum 8. Oktober 1944 als mitten im 2. Weltkrieg die Flucht/Vertreibung bedingt durch das Vordringen der Roten Armee und der Partisanen Titos ihren Anfang nahm. Anne Jung (später verehelichte Holden) beschreibt aus der Sicht eines kleinen Mädchens tagebuchähnlich in "In Search of a Warm Room" (Warren Publishing, Cornelius, NC, 2002) was sie danach alles erlebte. Am besagten Tag um 12 Uhr mittags verließ ihre Familie auf Pferdewagen Tscherwenka. Ihre Irrfahrt durch ein Europa im zu Ende gehenden 2.Weltkrieg beschreibt den Wahnsinn dieser Zeit. Auf der Suche nach einem Entkommen aus der Not emigriert die Familie mit Anne, dem Mädchen, in die USA, wo sie die Schule besucht, einen Bachelor und einen Master macht, heiratet und mittlerweile 3 Kinder und 6 Enkelkinder hat. Ihre Erlebnisse auf der Flucht/Vertreibung haben sie jedoch nicht losgelassen, sodaß sie beschloß, ihre Erinnerungen niederzuschreiben. "In Search of a Warm Room" ist das Ergebnis. Lesenswert!

3 comments about Burned Child Seeks The Fire.
- The author mesmerizes you with the simplicity and eloquence of her writing. She moves you with her childhood, her courage in the camps and the power of her spirit in returning to choose life again.
- This was just a great book. No books that I've read on this subject have been quite so compelling!
- This is not a book for children. Rather it is a recollection of images and perceptions of the adult/child who survived the camps of World War Two to tell the tale. Cordelia Edvardson is a humanist who wants the world to abolish all that is inhumane most especially when it comes to children. She knows what its like to be taunted, terrified and have a tortured soul. A must for every policy maker, teacher, and whoever still believes in preserving a sane world.
