She had to endure people’s prejudice against Jews, working in her family’s store, and sexual abuse from her father. There was no family life for the Shilsky’s, just working in the store. During that time, she was ashamed because they were poor, Jewish, and her mom was handicapped (from the polio she had). Of course, this would change during her time in Suffolk, but only her family’s economic status would change. As she said, “[…] had plenty of money and we were all miserable” (61). Her older brother Sam, couldn’t take all the pressure and ran away from home and later died in WW2 in a plane crash. Luckily, Ruth did have one friend.

Life before her family, Ruth was living in not the best of conditions that was available to her.

“‘I suppose it is a bit cruel,’ Ruth said, ‘the way they always work him up like that. But it’s his own fault. If he learnt to keep his cool, they’d leave him alone’… I suppose the truth was, by that stage, each of us was secretly wishing a guardian would come from the house and take him away.
