Gone with the Fire by Noemi Szac-Wajnkranc is a diary from the times of the Holocaust, a deeply moving document in which, through individual fates described in detail by the author, a broad socio-cultural and factual perspective is presented of the period of World War II in occupied Poland. This document is all the more valuable because it combines different perspectives. It shows the fate (and, even more valuable, the details of the daily struggle with it) of Polish Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto and describes life incognito on the "Aryan" side of the city, hiding in the Mazovian countryside, fighting in the ghetto uprising, the realities related to the case of the "Hotel Polski", where survivors from the Jewish district burned to the ground were offered a mirage of American visas and a trip to the internment camp in Vittel. Readers are also witnesses to the desperate search for her beloved husband conducted by the author in Nazi prisons in Warsaw, in the camps in Trawniki, Poniatowo, Treblinka and Majdanek.
