The Polish Patriot: True Story

The Polish patriot is not just a memoir of war, nor is any history book. It is the true story of the path in the life of a young Polish Jewish doctor, who just began his specialization in dentistry when World War II breaks out. The young dentist, named David, was captured by the Russians and sent to Siberia in a cattle truck-clogged with many others on a long journey. In Siberia, he meets the woman who would become his wife, also a refugee from Poland. They get married, and he was drafted into the Red Army. Russia was attacked by Hitler, and Stalin responds. After several years in Siberia, he manages to bring his wife and her parents to Uzbekistan where their first son was born. The Russian army invades Poland, and David finds himself back in his country, as an officer. He reaches his hometown Warsaw and finds the town in ruins, he succeeds to find his aunt Eugenia, but he discovers that his whole family has been murdered. He also discovers that Poland did not really want him back. He advanced with the Russian army into the depths of Poland, fought the Germans retreating till his arrival in Berlin. But his war has only just begun, he settles in the city of Stettin and brings his family from Uzbekistan, they discover another Poland, an even more anti-Semitic Poland. His wife and his family leave for Israel; he is the only one left, works in a hospital and falls in love with a Polish girl. He sees the masses, demonstrating in the streets, screaming 'Jews, go to Palestine, we do not want you to here' and the reality has changed, it's not the Poland he loved, where he and his parents and grandparents were born. Their blood soaks the soil and the air is full of hatred. He decides to leave and follow his family.
