This book is a true story, transcribed from recollections of Sophie M Cosaert, a survivor of the Japanese prison camps of World War II, and of the Indonesian Revolution of 1945.
As a strong, intelligent, mixed-race woman, her fight for survival is not only fascinating, but empowering. Showing that women of all races and classes can stand up for what they believe, and fight for their success.
The ongoing documentation of her story is being carried out by her granddaughter, Tiersa M Cosaert.
