The power of the human spirit despite the unthinkable pages of history across decades and continents, from Siberia, the mass graves in Katyń to the shores of Australia. The author will also share a display of unique historical memorabilia of original photos, her mother’s diary from 1939-1945, and the original last letter and postcard sent by Anna’s grandfather from Katyń.
