As the new year approaches I'm excited to announce the birth of my new book The Past is Never Past
When recently widowed Pearl King decides to spend the summer of 2014 with her daughter in Israel, she brings along old German letters for her granddauhgter to translate. Following a broken engagement Ilana Horowitz is eager for the distraction. Those letters spark numerous questions, and while answering them , Pearl shares stories about her past. Her husband had been a RITCHIE BOY, her brother-in-law one of the KINDERTRANSPORT children, and she'd been an army nurse.
Pearl's visit takes an unexpected turn after the kidnapping and tragic murder of three boys on their way home from yeshiva and the eruption of OPERATION PROTECTIVE EDGE. Yossi Klein, Ilana's former fiance, is injured in a hit-and -run. Pearl's son, married to a non-Jew, visits after she breaks her elbow.
As the Horowitzes and the Kleins navigate the war- trying to keep their spirits up, faith intact, and repair what is broken-Pearl's recollections convey that the past is never truly gone. Instead, with HaShem's help. our memories shape and build a
BRIGHTER , BETTER FUTURE
