Oral historyFebruary 2018Hitler, Stalin and I
An Oral History
by Heda Margolius Kovály and Helena Třeštíková; translated by Ivan Margolius
This life and death human drama is not just about one survivor but a meaningful observation of an even more significant story about the bloody outcomes of extremism. – New York Journal of Books Through interviews with award-winning filmmaker Helena Treštíková, Kovály recounts her experiences under fascist and communist oppression. Miraculously surviving both Łódz Ghetto and Auschwitz, then escaping from a death march, Heda participated in the Prague Uprising and its liberation. Later, under Communist rule Heda suffered extreme social isolation after her first husband Rudolf Margolius was unjustly accused in the infamous Slánský Trial and executed for treason. Her son and translator of the book, Ivan Margolius, adds critical contextual information surrounding the trial and its recently uncovered documents and film footage. Remarkably, Kovály, who was exiled in the United States after the brutal crushing of the Prague Spring, only had love for her country and continued to believe in its people. She returned to Prague in 1996 and died there in 2010 at the age of 91.

What’s more, it was loads of fun with them. Marina even took a secret oath on the carousel with Jonas and Chris that would never go to school again because they would already know how to make movies.
