This story of the Feidt family chronicles the struggle of just one Jewish family against the never-ending tide of anti-Semitism. While Judaism is a religion and not a race, in Hitler's Germany in the 1930s, this non-observant family's membership of the Jewish community culminated in mortal danger for all of them as for so very many others. The family's fate under Hitler in Germany and then in England is set against the background of the events of World War II but also details the constant racist harassment of those Jewish family members who had to be left behind in Germany. Endless regulations prevented Jews from earning a living; owning or renting a home; or even buying food, together with an infinity of spiteful petty restrictions on the small everyday freedoms we all too easily take for granted.
