My parents and I at the house near Lake Balaton before they left in 1969. This photo was the inspiration for the cover art by artist Nancy Nimoy.

My brother Tibor and I, before they left for Vienna and later, Italy, and America.

A typical picture of my grandmother doing laundry in a tin tub in the backyard. That's me with my dog, Blind Crow. There is a whole chapter about him!

This is a picture of me and my mom on Lake Balaton, taken shortly before they left.  I treasure this picture. It was proof that she loved me and leaving me must have been the hardest thing she ever did.
