Questions: a Childhood Ambushed by War. a Memoir. Werner Pfeiffer

Questions is a memoir. It is a story about an ordinary childhood during extraordinary times. It is a narrative about a young boy, his mother and sister trying to navigate the treacherous vagaries of war. Driven from their hometown, the family spends a brief period in the bucolic setting of a remote village. It is here where they discover a family history and an ancient way of life long they had thought to be forgotten. When reality finally catches up they find themselves in the middle of a war zone. After the collapse of the Nazi Regime, they work their way back to their former life and begin the arduous adjustment to be part of an occupied country.
