Leslie Maitland
Leslie Maitlands mother and grandparents fled Germany in 1938 for France, where, as Jews, they spent four years as refugees—the last two under risk of Nazi deportation. In 1942 they made it onto the last boat to escape France before the Germans sealed the harbors. Then, barred from entering the United States, they lived in Cuba for almost two years before emigrating to New York. This sweeping account of one familys escape from the turmoil of war-torn Europe hangs upon the intimate story of the passionate romance between Maitlands mother and a Catholic Frenchman. Separated by war and her familys disapproval, the young lovers—Janine and Roland—lose each other for fifty years. But unlike so many stories of love during wartime, theirs has a happy ending.
