WAS I TARGETED BECAUSE MY COSMOPOLITAN APPEARANCE AND SKILLS MADE ME AN OBJECT OF PLEBEIAN HATRED. I NEVER ATTAINED ANY OF THE RICHES AND FAME IT APPEARED THAT I WAS HEADED FOR.
I STAGGERED THROUGH DAYS OF HARD WORK AND FEARFULNESS BECAUSE OF THE ACTIONS OF OTHER PEOPLE. I NEVER DID ANYTHING TO JUSTIFY THE POGROM I EXPERIENCED.
