When Crying Stops

Does a place exist after it is gone? Does a people? WHEN CRYING STOPS invokes these questions in a moving novel centered on the Jews in Romania during World War II. Meier, Golde, and Chane-rut Glattshteyn of Chernowitz lived through the violence on the streets, in the schools, and in their houses in the 1930s, before being deported to Transnistria, and a concentration camp, in 1941. Over the next four and a half years, they fought for survival from starvation, epidemics, and horrendous brutality. Through their tenacity, wit, and sheer refusal to give in, they succeeded in building new lives in Israel and America, England, and Canada at the war’s end. Created from a combination of survivor testimony, research and imagination, WHEN CRYING STOPS is rich with  rst-hand experience and unfolding historical perspectives on human oppression, deportation, and mass incarceration. Meier, Golde and Chane-rut Glattshteyn of Chernowitz were three who survived among the hundreds of thousands who did not. Their stories become exemplars of human strength, courage and dignity.
