Latvian: Through the Eyes of a Child
"Izdevums "Ar bērna acīm" veidots, izmantojot divu 1949. gada deportācijas piedzīvojušu cilvēku – Benitas Eglītes (dzim. Plezere) un Andas Līces – liecības, atmiņas un pārdomas.
Mazās Benitas zīmējumi ar paskaidrojumiem, kas bērna skatījumā atklāj dzīvi izsūtījumā no 1949. līdz 1956. gadam, ir papildināti ar viņas 2016. gadā Latvijas Okupācijas muzejam sniegtās intervijas izvilkumiem.
Andas Līces pārdomas tapušas 2020. gadā, iedvesmojoties no Benitas zīmējumiem un teksta, savijot tos ar pašas piedzīvoto."
A description of the English version follows.
""Through the Eyes of a Child" is based on the experiences of two Latvian children who were part of a mass deportation to Siberia in 1949. As a child, Benita Eglīte (née Plezers) recorded these events in drawings. The pictures were hidden during the occupation and brought to light after Latvia regained independence in 1991. These illustrations are published along with Benita's adult descriptions of what is happening in each scene. Each drawing is also accompanied by a reflection written in adulthood by Anda Līce. Deported as a child, Anda later became a writer and poet."
Available at the Museum of the Occupation of Latvia (Latviešu strēlnieku laukums 1, Riga).
