A gripping memoir written in literary style, as in Roots, that brings to life the author's parents and their parents and places them in the historically accurate, critical era of pre-Holocaust Europe to post World War II in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Secrets are revealed in a shocking, rich, honest and authentic story of love, betrayal, survival and, finally, hope in the form of music from a broken violin. Tikvah reveals the unusual circumstances of her beginnings and her life as a child in an impoverished family.
