janiszow (heaven and hell)
"June 1941. My sister and I brought
our cows to the good pasture near the Vistula River. Through the
trees, I discovered we were next to the Janiszew prison camp, which
the Nazis had turned into a death camp for the Jewish boys. After
they were beaten until they could no longer work on the dam, they
were led into the birch forest and shot."
