maple, number 269, and grows right at the main avenue, named
after the writer and physician Arnold Mostowicz. Since 2005, she
has participated in the annual commemorations of the Lodz ghetto
liquidation. In August 2021 she spoke on behalf of the Survivors
at the Radegast station.
“After the war, I really wanted to forget about those cruel
years, but I soon realized that they could not be forgotten, and
even that they must not be forgotten” - she said to the audience
gathered at the ceremony. “But memory alone is not enough. This
memory must be special, devoid of hatred, desire for revenge or
retaliation, free from aggression and contempt, rich in respect and
understanding for human diversity. Only such memory can give
hope that the tragic history will not be repeated”.
The book “Crumbs of Memory” by Zofia Lubinska-Rosset,
published at the Dialogue Center’ Library in the series: “People”,
brings back the memory of the events from several decades ago,
but is also an appeal of the Survivors' generation to us, contempo-
raries, never to forget about what happened during World War II,
neither be indifferent nor allow hatred.
I would like to express my thanks to the World Without End
Publishing and its owner Mr. Mirek Sopek for the support in pub-
lishing this book.
