Tomas Fritta Haas (1941-2015) was liberated as a four-year-old child in the Small Fortress in Terezin - the youngest political prisoner. He returned to Prague as an orphan. Even after the war, he became a victim of the regime and circumstances. Although he was the only heir, he did not receive any property from his ancestors that could have ensured a better life. He found himself with people who certainly had the best intentions, but were unable to get along with a difficult-to-educate boy. The fact that he only finished elementary school, his constant provocations towards adults in childhood, towards superiors in youth, and sometimes exaggerated, perhaps a little played cheerfulness that he drew attention to, all stemmed from deep scars on his soul. Despite this, he lived a rich life; he loved people. The biography of the son of the famous artist Bedrich Fritta is accompanied by a number of colorful illustrations and photographs.
