Overview
Many Years, Many Worlds simultaneously explores the loss of a parent and the intricacies of a tumultuous mother/daughter relationship while the author discovers her parent's lives in the Middle East in 1949. It is both a tender and provocative book, invoking an emotional response, as it probes the way we look at world politics and human nature. While cleaning out her mother's shed, the day before her mother's funeral, Beth found letters and photographs that give deeper insite into the world as it was in 1949. Many Years, Many Worlds is a touching and engrossing true story that follows Beth's discovery of her mother's letters and through them sees a side of her mother she never knew. Many Years Many Worlds is a testament to the resiliency of human nature and a reminder to gather the oral history of our elders before it disappears. It shows how the people we can see in hindsight are heroes were just leading their lives, or, as Beth's father put it, "Taking a plane from point A to point B." Take a while and lose yourself in the wonderfully rich world of 1949 and Operation Magic Carpet.
