December 1944 whilst heavy snows fall over Budapest and soldiers battle for the streets, Georgina a young Jewish woman, is nearly starving to death with her new born son.
The battle outside is one of the most savage in the entire war. She knows that to go into the streets is virtually a death sentence or rape, but she must find food within the next few hours or her baby will certainly die. For Georgina there is no choice.
Alone and completely vulnerable she heads out into the freezing cold. Georgina My Mother's Story is an incredible true story of one woman's bravery and daring in Hungary during the Holocaust and through the brutal communist regime beyond. It's the story of a carefree young woman thrust into the worst tragedy in human history- and emerging triumphant.
About the author: Gabriella Kovac is the best-selling author of three recent books. Each has distinct characters and storylines that reflect Gabriella's unique insights into the hope, compassion, and strength which we are all capable of.
From the best Holocaust memoirs and gripping World War 2 survivor stories to charming children's picture books, Gabriella's written works are respectful, honest depictions of the world and people's own experiences that tap into the endless human potential for honour and success.
