The Interest Of My Mother

1988 I Also Received From The City Of Vienna The Cross Of Honour For Art And Science. These Titles And The Various Honors Mean A Great Deal To Me, Most Of All For The Reason That They Would Mean A Great Deal To My Parents Too.

Especially For My Father It Was A Great Change. He Used To Be A Socialist And Even A Member Of The Socialist Party. But Then He Became An Orthodox Jew.

In The Morning We Received Some Very Thin Coffee. For Lunch We Had Potato Soup With A Few Pieces Of Meat In It, In The Evening We Had A Very Thin Meat Soup With Some Potatoes In It.

My Father Was An Ardent Socialist For Many Years.

The Interest Of My Mother Was More In The Entertainment Field. She Loved To Go To Concerts And To The Theatre.
