About this book
Władysław Szpilman, a Polish pianist and composer, tells of his wartime years in Warsaw. The memoir opens at a café on Nowolipki Street in the heart of the Warsaw ghetto, where he worked as a pianist.
By the time the ghetto gates closed in November 1940, his family had sold everything they could, even the piano.
