How does a young girl search for a benevolent father figure and suitable husband for her single mother among a group of Holocaust survivors?

Surviving Remnant recreates her childhood community of ambitious, humorous, and resilient immigrant refugees who occupy an apartment building, eager to adapt to their new homeland and build new lives for themselves and their children in the aftermath of the Holocaust.Along her hapless search for a paternal figure, Marcus becomes a fanatical Brooklyn Dodgers fan, a misguided violinist, a somnambulist, a neurotic, a hapless matchmaker, and noted fashion model for her mother’s stunning clothing designs.
