A Rose Blooms in the Desert by Alan Messing NEUF usine

Fleeing the German invasion of Poland in September 1939, Corporal Meyer returns home to Pysznica to rejoin his family. Miriam, a young woman traveling with her family, stops in Pysznica to take care of her ill father. Meyer and Miriam meet, and their love for each other blossoms despite the hardships of war.

Working together, they try to keep their two Jewish families alive-no small feat during the Nazi occupation. They struggle to survive as they are forced into slave labor, and endure some of the worst treatment and anti-Semitism the world has ever seen. They are compelled to go into hiding. Meyer and Miriam must watch as their large family is threatened, not knowing what will become of everyone.

Eventually, Miriam and Meyer are separated. Miriam is forced to adopt a new identity while Meyer is subjected to the abuse of three concentration camps. If only they can survive this war and the f hrers plot to destroy their people, they can finally be together.

Miriam and Meyers story of survival, love, and enduring commitment through suffering is a testament to the power of love and the ferocity of war.
