In her witty, yet sophisticated writings, the author recreates the atmosphere of rebellion, fear and hope that prevailed in a prison cell. This book not only opens the pages of the most difficult historical events to the reader, but also allows one to delve into the inner world of an exceptional woman who managed to preserve her dignity in the most difficult moments.
