Reich-Ranicki had lived in Berlin since 1929. He was deported to Poland in 1938 because of his Jewish descent. In November 1940 he found himself behind the walls of the Warsaw Ghetto. At the time of his stay in the ghetto he was working for the Judenrat as a chief translator. He also contributed to the collaborative newspaper Gazeta Zydowska (The Jewish Newspaper) as a music critic. In 1943 he managed to escape to the "Aryan side".
