Summary

In 1943, with Lvov's 150,000 Jews having been killed, exiled, or forced into ghettos, a group of Polish Jews daringly sought refuge in the city's sewer system. Chiger, the last surviving member of this group, shares one of the most intimate, harrowing, and ultimately triumphant tales of survival to emerge from the Holocaust
