Family is the glue that holds us all together.Worlds Intertwined by Golda Fruchter Brunhild is a thoughtful, loving story about two families-their struggles, endurance, sacrifices, and compromises. Ultimately, however, its central importance is the relationship of each member to the social unit as a whole. As I read, I shed tears, laughed, was horrified, and delighted by this personal narrative and its vividly described characters. They were real.Ms. Brunhild's book is an indescribable legacy for her family and descendants. I would wish all could be so fortunate as to know the history of our parent's and grandparent's past. Maybe her book will be an impetus to others to cozy up to their laptop, computer, legal pad, or notebook and begin writing their memories to share with their families. I am so grateful that she has chosen to also share them with her readers.Rebecca Stone, M.S., Community DevelopmentUniversity of Maryland.(And single mother of an adopted special needs son.)
