520    "An epic and beautifully written World War II family 
       history that spans Europe, telling of two happy families 
       uprooted by war, their incredible suffering in Hitler's 
       and Stalin's camps, and the near-miraculous survival and 
       rescue of the author's parents who met after the war. 
       Daniel Finkelstein's grandfather Alfred Wiener was a 
       German Jewish intellectual leader who tolled an early 
       warning of the impending Holocaust and became an archivist
       of Nazi crimes. He relocated his family to safety in 
       Amsterdam, where they became close with Anne Frank's 
       family. But they were eventually separated, and Daniel's 
       mother Mirjam was sent to Bergen-Belsen with her mother 
       and sisters while Alfred worked feverishly to free them. 
       Finkelstein's father, Ludwik, grew up in a prosperous 
       Jewish family in Poland where his father was a patriotic 
       hero of the Great War. But when Stalin took control, 
       Finkelstein's grandfather was deported to Siberia, while 
       Ludwik and his mother were sent to Kazahkstan, where they 
       barely survived freezing winters and harrowing forced 
       labor conditions. Two Roads Home is a page-turning account
       of ingenuity, bravery and the almost unbelievable 
       coincidences that brought Daniel's parents together. The 
       story features secret archives, forgery and theft, and 
       sweeps across Europe to show the expanse of the war. 
       Moving, engrossing and inspiring, Two Roads Home will 
       profoundly touch all who read it"--|cProvided by publisher
