Abstract

In this to and fro the chest of drawers left the Michelsberg, with Felix and Erna. I see Felix, or more likely, Erna reaching in for fresh underwear, hand-stitched shirts and handkerchiefs with his initials FG embroidered on every sheet and pillowcase. Max reported that after 25 months in Theresienstadt in October 1944 Felix and Erna were put on a transport to Auschwitz "to be gassed". To the left of the chest stood a walnut dresser with a glass front, from the Netherlands, on the right another piece belonging to Erna's mother, or Mädchen, as he called her.
