In the Fullness of Time, (Paperback)

From an unsettled Poland in the 1920s, immigrants come to America, strangers in their origins, but compatriots in their country of choice. Their descendants find themselves fighting for Hürtgen Forest, inside Nazi Germany. In December 1944, a strange truce brings medics from both sides together in harmony to save lives, during one of the most brutal battles of the war. An impetuous gift is made, from one side to the other, that eventually is willed to a professor. He thinks little of it, until he stumbles upon a painting that prompts a journey of discovery, of an intertwining of lives, across generations, oceans, and wars.
