Andrii Pavlyshyn presented the book "Mina's Story. A Doctor's Memoir of the Holocaust".
This autobiography is a true story covering the years of the Holocaust spent in hiding, as well as the postwar years. Despite her many losses, suffering, and wandering, Mina had an enormous strength of spirit and love for life, which inspired those around her. In the difficult conditions of hiding, she raised her daughter, and was able to eventually realize her medical skills. Mina's strength is undeniably a model for future generations. The book is addressed to a wide audience.
