Pittsburg, California May 11, 2020 (Issuewire.com) - Racine, Wisconsin — Have you experienced being confined in a feeling and stuck in a moment where you wanted to go back? If you ever had, Barbara Celeste McCloskey’s Finding Gessler is a perfect book for your one-time nostalgia. A book full of adventure, fear, romance, tragedy, and love, McCloskey’s literary artistry brings readers back to the smokes and ashes of World War II through a lovers’ story.
“First and foremost, this is Edward's story. He's an intelligent young man from a good family growing to manhood in Germany prior to the start of World War II. As the shadow of Nazism spreads across the land, Edward keeps his distance from politics and the Third Reich's abominable prejudices and policies. Soon, however, a lapse in propriety and a twist of fate combine to change his life forever. He impregnates Dora, a young Polish girl who is also Jewish. Refusing to abandon her, or to have the pregnancy terminated, Edward marries her. His father is outraged. He literally banishes and disowns his son. Leaving Germany for Poland, Dora's parents are no less understanding of their daughter’s actions, so the two are left to make a life for themselves without the aid and comfort of family ties. But the couple manages to both survive and prosper, and two more children are added to their union…,” says Joe Kilgore of US Review of Books.
McCloskey dedicates her book to her loving husband, Ken, and her sister-in-law, Sue Barnett. Moreover, of equal importance, she dedicates her book to all the brave souls during the World War II years who fought the terror of the Nazis in any way they could.
