Later that night, at the hospital, doctors confirmed what all had suspected: that he had suffered a massive hemorrhagic stroke, paralyzing the right side of his body. Once he became stable, Raban embarked on an extended stay at a rehabilitation center, where he became acquainted with, and struggled to accept, the limitations of his new bodylearning again how to walk and climb stairs, attempting to bathe and dress himself, and rethinking how to write and even read.Woven into these pages is an account of a second battle, one that his own father faced in the trenches during World War II. With intimate letters that his parents exchanged at the time, Raban places the budding love of two young people within the tumultuous landscape of the wars various fronts, from the munition-strewn beaches of Dunkirk to blood-soaked streets of Anzio.

The result is Father and Son, a powerful story of mourning, but also one of resilience. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …
