Marie-Hélène Blonde just published her book in French "UNE ODYSSÉE FAMILIALE. DE STERDYN À PARIS…"
When, in September 1939, they crossed the Bug with four of their children to escape the arrival of the Nazis, Mordko and Ruchla could not imagine the travel that awaited them. The following years saw them successively in Russian-occupied Poland, in a camp in the far Soviet north and in a kolkhoz near the Volga. The end of the war is not yet the end of the peregrinations. After a brief return to Poland, it was the departure towards the west, the camps for displaced persons and finally the arrival in Paris in April 1947. A new life began...
The story is based on the testimonies of the last participants of the trip supplemented by archival documents which are gradually becoming available.
