Summary

The devastation of the November 1938 pogrom, euphemistically known as 'Crystal Night', introduced a new level of Nazi horror that ended the author's family's happy life. This work describes the daily struggle to survive: overcrowding and disease, the underground world of criminals, hunger, heat, and humidity.
