What really happened that long night Liza hid in a neighbors haystack? “What had she done, what was her crime? Was this a hiding place for a human being who, whatever the incomprehensible reason, was no longer a human being in the world?” In a small Slovak town, it was no laughing matter to be an old maid. There was no denying that tongues wagged behind Liza’s back. She was getting on in years. Then one day in 1942 everything changed. Liza would never be the same again. The Nazis announced a “registration” of all unmarried Jewish girls. A shy boy willing to play groom and a make-believe wedding ceremony planned to save her from the Nazis add up to an ironic fulfillment of Liza’s long-frustrated dreams.
