The Great Depression and WWII were difficult and challenging years for so many. Mix that
drama with the trauma of a horribly dysfunctional family, and you had the makings of utter
disaster and failure. War Torn: Mending of a Family, however, tells the saga of one special
family through the eyes and words of a disenfranchised member who struggled her entire youth
to maintain her identity and relationship with her unforsaken family of siblings and survive the violent onslaught of an angry, contemptable and denying father.
The story follows the footsteps and years of our main character while she challengingly deals
with issues of exclusion and shame throughout her insecure, young life yet fights to retain
her place and independence within the family scope and, ultimately, bring all her siblings
back together where they belonged. The story is factual and historical by content and nature
as it reviews lifestyles and challenges while living through the depression and war years and
learning survival skills as a female welder of Rosie-the-Riveter (and Wendy-the-Welder) fame.
The story, therefore, is a biographical travelogue as it describes and discusses a variety of
conflicts and issues that arose in our young heroine’s life. There are enough tears to go around,
to-be-sure. Yet, there is also a plethora of historical fact and curious and humorous experiences
as well as inspirational commentary and dialogue.
