About the Book
Discover a Story of Courage, Hope, and Unyielding Faith
Step into the extraordinary life of Pepca, a young girl navigating the heartbreak and resilience of wartime Slovenia. In this unforgettable autobiography, every whisper of a secret and every glance exchanged carries the weight of life and death, as seen through the eyes of a child.
Through vivid storytelling, the reader will experience the haunting realities of World War II alongside the enduring rhythms of farm life that kindle hope even in the darkest times. This is a story of family, faith, and freedom—a journey from the war-torn landscapes of communist-partisan Slovenia to the promise of America.
In this Second Edition, author Josephine Janezic revisits her acclaimed work with updated maps and reflections on decades of geopolitical transformation. First published in 1989, during Slovenia’s days within the Socialist Federation of Yugoslavia, this edition bridges the past and present, offering both a moving personal testimony and a cautionary message for generations to come.
This is more than a memoir—it's a call to cherish liberty, guard against tyranny, and honor the resilience of the human spirit.
Don't just read history—feel it. Journey alongside Pepca in a story that will stay in the reader's heart forever.
