She was a thirty-seven-year-old Dutch-born mother, estranged from her husband. He was her immigrant boarder, not yet twenty, and a wealthy Surinamese descendant of slaves. The child they have together, brown skinned and blue eyed, brings the couple great joy yet raises some eyebrows. Until the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands explodes their promising life. What unfolds is more than the astonishing story of a love that prevailed over convention. It's also the quest of a young boy. Through the cruelty of World War II, he will fight for a connection between his father's South American birthplace and his mother's European traditions. Lost and displaced for much of his life, but with a legacy of resilience in his blood, he will struggle to find his place in the world. Moving deftly between personal experience and the devastating machinations of war, The Boy Between Worlds is an unforgettable journey of hope, love, and courage in the face of humanity's darkest hour. 600 10 $a Nods, Waldemar, $d 1908-1945. 600 10 $a Nods-van der Lans, Rika, $d 1891-1945. 600 10 $a Nods, Waldy, $d 1929- 650 0 $a Interracial marriage $z Netherlands. 650 0 $a Surinamese $z Netherlands $x Biography. 650 0 $a Righteous Gentiles in the Holocaust $z Netherlands $x Biography. 650 0 $a Racially mixed children $x Biography. 650 0 $a Racially mixed families $z Netherlands. 650 0 $a Prejudices. 650 0 $a Identity (Psychology) 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $z Netherlands $x Biography. 700 1 $a Gehrman, Kristen. 941 $a 2 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210602012710.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200529020521.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A42CB3B2A17211EABF4F886D97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
