Sonia Mushkat [סוניה מושקט]
Author(s): Savyon Liebrecht
Lydia and Paula are rich Jewish sisters, living in Hungary. During the war they hide in the basement of their estate, together with Lydia's son, Albert, and a Christian maid named Sonia. Life is extreme in hiding: there are cold, hungry and afraid—feelings that the rich characters are not accustomed to. Truth comes to light, connections and relationships, including those between Sonia's family and the rich Jews, and a love story blooms between the young.
