According to the Kabbalah, in each generation there are thirty-six righteous people who sustain the world and preserve humanity. These people are often unknown and obscure but they bear all the sorrows and sins of the world.

They also appear and help ordinary people in times of extreme need. Their deeds are often unrecognised and unexplained.

It has taken more than six decades for Sigi Siegreich to be able to talk to his children and grandchildren about his life in wartime Poland - the life of a privileged young Jewish boy who spoke six languages and had never even cleaned his own shoes.

The invasion of Poland by Germany in 1939 changed his world forever. The Thirty-six tells of Sigi's miraculous survival and the good and bad he saw of life and humanity in Poland during WWII.
