Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. I looked up the name in the phone book and rang the number. I tried to imagine the conversation that might ensue. 'Hello? I was wondering if you're the man who was recently at an auction and asked a woman named Bernadette if I was married and had children and was happy-and if you are, are you my real father?'Ramona Koval's parents were Holocaust survivors who fled their homeland and settled in Melbourne. As a child, Koval learned little about their lives, but she always suspected that the man who raised her was not her biological father.One day in the 1990s, she decided she must know the truth.

I was wondering if you're the man who was recently at an auction and asked a woman named Mary if I was married and had children and was happy-and if you are, are you my real father? Ramona Koval's parents were Holocaust survivors who fled their homeland and settled in Melbourne. As a child, Koval learned little about their lives-only snippets from traumatic tales of destruction and escape. But she always suspected that the man who raised her was not her biological father.
