Jews in the Garden: A Holocaust Survivor, the Fate… di Judy Rakowsky
The book was badly written but the information was amazing. Strange when speaking to survivors many had stories to tell about how terrible the Poles were during the WWII. Interesting that they saved people as well. Strange that Jews were not acknowledged as part of the population.

Because the bodies were planted in the garden of those who did try to make a difference.
This is told from the perspective of the author as she journeyed nine times (1991-2021) with her uncle back to the Poland of his past trying to locate one woman relative who escaped from being murdered by her neighbors for the crime of hiding a Jewish family. It's a tough read at times for one whose grandmother came from Poland. A good and necessary read.
