The Blood Years: Elena K. Arnold

Despite the many upsides of age, a long life means that we have witnessed a number of horrendous events. However, one of the most horrendous events in all of mankind’s history was experienced by our parents’ generation. And that, of course was the Holocaust and the tragic events of World War II.

Our guest, Elena K. Arnold, has written a riveting account of a young girl and her family who experienced the horrors of that terrible war in the town of Czernowitz, Romania. Although the book is technically historical fiction, Elena drew heavily upon the experiences of her own grandmother, Frieda Teitler.  

The book is entitled: The Blood Years and is the story of love, family, and survival… even under the darkest of experiences. Elena’s book is an important work with an incredibly profound message that you’ll want to share and discuss with your older grandchildren.

Please plan to tune in for this incredibly moving conversation.
