Detalii:

This story is a microcosm of millions of others, a love story of two people seeking to be to be reunited after years of separation. My mothers death. The sudden discovery of family papers. My fathers unfinished manuscript. Her account of a perilous escape from our native Sudetenland.My fathers writings chronicle the rising specter of nationalism. How his libertarian views became disillusioned with ties of other family members to Berlins inner circle. Hitlers occupation of native soil. My fathers near fatal injuries in the Italian campaign.My mothers and my survival were dependent upon her wits and ingenuity - the advancing Red Army, Czech retribution, refugee camps.In an ironic twist of fate, this story begins during the Great Depression and outbreak of WW II. Its first rough outline conceived during the Great Recession of 2008/2009. Finally published some ten years later during the worlds worst health and financial crisis in modern history. May my children, their children and, indeed, the worlds children be spared many years of misery to come.
