Separately, from Egypt and from Germany, each leaped continents, cultures, and languages as a refugee before finding a new home in the United States. Hiding in plain sight in France, Cecile eluded capture by the Nazis, but lost many dear to her. Diane came of age there, far from the Mediterranean idyll of her childhood in Egypt. They relied on family, faith, and resilience to overcome the otherness felt by displaced peoples. As they dictated their memoirs to one another, Diane and Cecile discovered the anatomy of their friendship in their parallel odysseys and the optimism of 20th-century American womanhood UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781644698372?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781644698372 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781644698372/original ER -
