Description
Edith, the only child of a Dutch military man and his young, German-born wife, is born in the Dutch colony of Indonesia. A happy childhood gets interrupted by WWII, during which her parents are captured and interned in separate camps. Little Edie is incarcerated with her mother and survives trauma and horrific conditions, while her father is forced into slave labour on the infamous Burma railroad.
After the war, when the Indonesian revolution makes life impossible there for the Dutch, Edie’s life is torn asunder. But eventually it knits into a richly colourful tapestry of exotic travel, fascinating experiences, and the highs and lows of passionate love. Her story will captivate readers who love travel, adventure, true-life romance, and history; both ancient and modern. Expressed in a uniquely observant, distinctive, and utterly endearing voice, And the Universe Unfolds as it Should takes us on an absorbing, emotionally gripping tour of times and places that many of us will never see or that no longer exist as they once were.
