The first draft of the novel with the working title of 'OLD SHADOWS,' was written several years ago. I am working on a second draft at the moment. 'OLD SHADOWS,' is a book about two lives that cross paths momentarily at Belsen camp and then go on their separate ways only to again meet in totally different circumstances. The rest of the novel follows the lives of these two people, one a soldier, the other a young Jewish girl. This book is about love, memory, survival, hardship, laughter, the intensity of life from start to finish.
At the same time I am writing 'FRAGMENTS OF INFINITY,' the thoughts of a 71 year old man living by himself. He contemplates the mess of his past, the happiness of the present and the terror of the future. It is written in a poetic format with some dialogue.
