An extraordinary piece of international survival literature, joining the likes of Primo Levi and Anne Frank. A beautiful memoir of resilience through Soviet repression and the Gulag that, like the author, beats the odds to survive.
In 1941, 14-year-old Dalia and her family are deported from their native Lithuania to a labour camp in Siberia. As the strongest member of her family she submits to twelve hours a day of manual labour. At the age of 21, she escapes the gulag and returns to Lithuania. She writes her memories on scraps of paper and buries them in the garden, fearing they might be discovered by the KGB. This is the story Dalia buried.
