Conditions there deteriorate for those of Jewish descent. Nechuma, Sol, Mila, and Halina are still living in Radom, which is under German occupation. Selim disappears, and Jakob and Genek remain in Lvov, which is under Soviet authority. When war breaks out, Genek, Jakob, and Selim all enlist in the Polish Army, which the Germans, with Soviets aid, swiftly defeat. Nechuma and her husband Sol come together with the rest of their family: their eldest son Genek and his wife, Herta their daughter Mila, her husband Selim, and baby Felicia their son Jakob and the youngest child, their daughter Halina. In Radom, the Kurc family gathers for Passover. Addy tries to return to Radom for Passover, but passing through German-held territory is impossible. He reads a letter from his mother Nechuma, who tells him that conditions are worsening in Radom, as the threat of war with the Nazis looms over Poland. In March 1939, Addy Kurc is living in Toulouse, just outside of Paris.
