The Wildbird Shack is thrilled to welcome local author Barbara Serbinski Sipe for a book discussion on her recently published book "Letters From The Box In The Attic: A Story of Courage, Survival and Love" on June 6 at 6PM.

Sipe's powerful book traces her mother's courageous and terrifying journey from the Soviet invasion of Poland, through Soviet prisons and her eventual release from a Siberian labor camp, through the deserts of the Middle East, through Italy and then eventually to the shores of Great Britain where she learns tragic information. The moving memoir is based upon letters, documents and photographs Barbara discovered in her mother’s attic as well as her own memories growing up in a Polish household. The research Sipe has done for the book also explains why her mother was arrested, how she and her husband dealt with their past and how their life changing experiences ultimately affected them.

“There have been many books written recently both as non-fiction and historical fiction about survivors of World War II. I am proud to present this piece of nonfiction as a story of survival, courage and love,” says Barbara Sipe.

Sipe's book discussion is sure to be an incredible and moving event! I can't wait to learn more about Sipe's book, her discovery of the documents and her craft as an author. You do not have to have read the book for this discussion. Books will be available for purchase but purchase is not necessary.


The Wildbird Shack is located at 854 E Northwest Highway in Mount Prospect. RSVPs are appreciated. You can call the store at 847-873-0409, email at info@wildbirdshack.com or mark going on Facebook.
