The book “My Journey Through the Night” is the memoirs of Jakub Littner, a Jew from Munich who tried to escape from extermination during the Holocaust. In search of salvation, he traveled a difficult path through Central and Eastern Europe - from Prague, Krakow, Lviv and Zalishchiki to the Galician city of Zbarazh. There, having found himself in a ghetto and losing his neighbors and loved ones, Jakub Littner survived by hiding under the conditions of Nazi occupation. His memoirs, written in 1945, are a valuable source for studying local manifestations of the Nazi policy of the “final solution to the Jewish question”, forms and strategies of survival, as well as the peculiarities of relations between the Jewish and non-Jewish population during World War II.

The publication is intended for historians, students, local historians, as well as anyone interested in the history of the Holocaust, interethnic relations, and local history studies.
