At Columbia University, the semester had already started in the first week of September and here I was, in the middle of October. I arrived in New York on October 17, 1947. Crossing the Atlantic took one week. Most of the passengers were Americans of English, Irish or Scottish descent, who had visited their families, for the first time after the war.

Whether it was turbot or cod or hake or even salmon - everything was boiled and tasteless. — Pearl Fichman

Yes! The horse said. Come inside! Eat you! Tasty half-blood!

We have a small, tight family. I left home at a young age and the best thing for me was to go home at Christmas-time and spend time with my family and friends.

We never really went caroling, but once in a while we'd got out for a sleigh ride — Jimmy Roy

Shelly Williams, the main character, speaking about her life:
