Imagine your husband leaving 3 days after the wedding. Then, months later, you start married life in a new country.
Selma Kater was raised in Amsterdam, the daughter of a Jewish father and a Christian mother. Sidney Smith was a Canadian soldier born in Charlotte County, New Brunswick, the eldest son of hard-working parents. Following the Liberation of the Netherlands, they fall in love and marry.
Married life in Upper Mills is challenging, but they always look forward and never talk about the past.
When it is too late to ask, their daughter finds a stationery box of letters, nearly all in Dutch. She can't read them, but they create a desire to know the woman who had received the letters, the woman who was more than 'Mom'.
She obtains more letters, also in Dutch, written by her mother during the early years of marriage, and she finds a translator to open the window to the past. Her journey begins there, but its scope expands as she incorporates personal memory and life's inevitable transitions.
