A very interesting description of his life in the 20th up to 40th last century,
about communist illegal activity, the Siguranta etc. A part of Jewish
and Romanian life that is not often mentioned or known.
I wonder about the years 1945 to 2007 in Radauti. Has he left
reminiscences or was there a sort of self censure for this period?
