Reviews"The Fittkos lived the Resistance, they carried on the Resistance on a personal scale that was often more spectacular and more heroic than what was happening on a grand scale. Lisa Fittko, who now lives in Chicago, tells her story calmly and without self-pity. That is what makes this book believable, and thus important." -- Die Zeit

SynopsisLisa Fittko's gripping memoir of the antifascist resistance in Germany opens with Hitler's ascension to power in January 1933, and continues through her flight to Czechoslovakia and, later, across Europe. She and her husband, everywhere considered undesirable aliens, and at the mercy of unsympathetic authorities for food, shelter, and work, continue their selfless efforts against fascism.
