Jumping Over Shadows: A Memoir

History was repeating itself when Annette Gendler fell in love with a Jewish man in Germany in 1985. Her Great-Aunt Resi had been married to a Jew in Czechoslovakia before World War IIâ€•a marriage that, while happy, created tremendous difficulties for the extended family once the Nazis took over their hometown in 1938, and ultimately did not survive the pressures of the time. Annette and Harryâ€™s love, meanwhile, was the ultimate nightmare for Harryâ€™s family of Holocaust survivors.

Weighed down by the burdens of their family histories, Annette and Harry kept their relationship secret for three years, until they could forge a path into the future and create a new life in Chicago. As time went on, however, Annette found a spiritual home in Judaismâ€•a choice that paved the way toward acceptance by Harryâ€™s family, and redemption for some of the wounds of her own familyâ€™s past.
