Trieste
In Italy, an elderly mother awaits a reunion with the son stolen from her by the Nazis—“A darkly hypnotic kaleidoscope of a book” (The Jewish Daily Forward). Haya Tedeschi sits alone in Gorizia, in northeastern Italy, surrounded by a basket of photographs and newspaper clippings. Now an old woman, she waits to be reunited after sixty-two years with her son, fathered by an SS officer and stolen from her by the German authorities as part of Himmler’s clandestine Lebensborn project. Tedeschi reflects on her Catholicized Jewish family’s experiences, in a narrative that deals unsparingly with the massacre of Italian Jews in the concentration camps of Trieste. Her obsessive search for her son leads her to photographs, maps, and fragments of verse, to testimonies from the Nuremberg trials and interviews with second-generation Jews, and to eyewitness accounts of atrocities that took place on her doorstep. From this broad collage of material and memory arises the staggering chronicle of Nazi occupation in northern Italy that “explores the 20th century’s darkest chapter in an original way . . . an exceptional reading experience” (Minneapolis Star-Tribune).
Destination, Croatia
This is the sequel to Dan's first novel, Boston/Moscow Connection'. It carry's forward with the exploits of Ron Moscow and Tyrell Boston, two pilots and veterans of the Viet Nam war. Ron, recuperated from a wound, they fly back to the States. Which leads their further exploits and this book, DESTINATION: CROTIA. "Dan Goldstein puts to sleep the idea that sequels are usually not as good as the original story. He also proves that there are new writers following closely on the heels of the old writers' who have run out of ideas and are pushing out a new book every month written by their ghost writers under the name of the established old writer. Dan has taken his original story,' Boston / Moscow Connection' full circle to its smashing conclusion." I want to thank my daughter, Susan Hansbury and my friend, Joanne Sidman, for the many hours they spent editing this book.
