Be happy! Author's autobiography launched on her 100th birthday

Book of East Prussian and African memoirs published as surprise present for centenarian
 
ST NICHOLAS-AT-WADE, U.K. - Feb. 26, 2025 - PRLog -- This is the true story of how the author grew up in what is now Poland, survived horrific ordeals during the last stages of WW2 and the post-war period, yet maintained a constantly positive attitude. She enjoyed a multitude of jobs across southern Africa, culminating in a managerial role at a bank in the new Zimbabwe: a land in chaos due to hyperinflation. Throughout this time, she never failed to keep good humour, be it in her interactions with occupying military forces and bureaucrats, when dealing with petty thieves, or in more ordinary pursuits such as dog shows and flower clubs.

These memoirs form a unique record of 20th century life in Europe and Africa, in all its rich tapestry, and above all of an especially resilient individual. Her family reached out to Ozaru Books - known for publishing other English-language memoirs by women forced to flee East Prussia - to ensure the book could be edited and published just in time for a special surprise on the author's hundredth birthday.

It will be available soon from all major retailers, but in the interim, more details can be found at https://ozaru.net/ozarubooks/be-happy.html
