Book description
'When one's heart breaks, that is life getting in. Life making room.' A heart-stopping family epic of grief and hope, and one family blown apart - across the globe, across time, across parallel possibilities - by war. For the Alterman family, Fania and Arnold, and their children Sonja and Moses, the universe has been fractured. In 1938 Sonja is lifted onto a Kindertransport train that will take her from Nazi-occupied Austria to London. She is the only member of her family to survive. In 1966 Fania works as a massage therapist in Montreal, a place that has provided her safe haven after she lost her entire family in the war. In 2016 Arnold lives out the last of his days and the last memories he has of his family in the city he has always called home. And in 2000, Moses awaits the birth of his grandson, unaware that the strings that tie him to his past are being drawn tighter and tighter. Surely none of these realities co-exist, and yet they seem to be drawing closer . . . Moving between Vienna and Prague, London and Montreal, New York and Miami, Stuart Nadler's Rooms for Vanishing is a spellbinding exploration of what might happen when grief and hope collide.
