Re: [Cz-L] Discrimination Thread

Dear Iris,
I am sure that after I left the house my carved name was removed.
But I believe that I have one more spot in that cellar, but right now I cannot remember where. If that time will come I will surprise them.

Honestly Artur, I don't remember ever laughing and weeping simultaneously, 
which is what occurred while reading  your nostalgic, humorous but
poignantly beautiful story on  returning to your grandmother's former house in
Czernowitz..
    Without using words like theft, fear and  guilt, over two generations
later your story implies the granddaughter of  the woman who benefited from
the seizure of your grandmother's house  conveyed those very emotions when
confronted by the grandson of the  original owner. The fact that you only
wanted to see the house again
did not seem to allay those feelings.  To her, in 1945 you might as  well
have carved your name in that basement in blood..
 
    Thank you, Artur.  Your story speaks for  itself.
