Fiszer often uses dialogue with her father's words describing his Nazi camp experiences during World War 11, and his deep love for her mother. Fiszer illustrates her complicated relationship with her father, after her mother's death, through a series of poems that show his demanding and critical nature and his difficult transition from an independent lifestyle to a long-term care facility where he died from Parkinson's disease at 89.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e In the last section Fiszer describes her mother's life when the Warsaw Uprising began, incorporating some entries from a journal her mother kept during that time when she was in several war camps.
