The Sun Will Shine Again

Author: Cynthia Goldstein Monsour

In The Sun Will Shine Again, we follow Bruno’s childhood under Nazi oppression, from his third birthday in Austria through his tenth in Belgium at the end of World War II. In those seven years, he and his twin brother experienced a lifetime of despair and hope. They were often alone and living in the shadows, but they had each other. It’s 80 years later as Bruno tells his story to his granddaughter, Tess. His memories of war and genocide are direct and vivid. They come from a child’s perspective, but with decades of reflection.
