A jeweler s winding path back to Judaism, and the family business – J

A harrowing tale of survival wrapped around a love story  – J

Fela Kuvent, born in 1919 in the Polish town of Gostynin, was a smart, vivacious, dark-eyed girl who loved to sing, dance and enjoy life in her Jewish milieu. She met her future husband, Joska Michalski, just as Nazi Germany was casting its ominous shadow across her homeland. Over the next horrific decade, Fela and her brother Kuba fled Poland on foot, evaded the Nazis, were arrested trying to enter the Soviet Union, and were imprisoned, released, betrayed and separated multiple times. They located Joska, who had abandoned the Polish army, in a Russian POW camp, and for a short time the three barely survived by their wits in the same Russian border town.
