Boy 30529: a memoir

'Boy 30529' tells the story of a child who at the age of 12 lost everything: hope, home, and even his own identity.

Born into a respectable Czech family, Felix's early years were idyllic.

But when Nazi persecution threatened in 1938, his father travelled to England, hoping to arrange for his family to emigrate there.

His efforts came too late, and his wife and children fell into the hands of the Fascist occupiers.
