The fortuitous nature of life cannot be better exemplified than through this fascinating account of one young woman's experiences and travels in Switzerland and Europe during the tumultuous times around World War II.

O autoru

Annelou Perrenoud spent her youth in some of the most picturesque Alpine regions of Switzerland. Growing up through wartime in a “neutral” country made for gentler but no less engrossing adventures. In 1957, she moved with her husband to Denver, Colorado, USA, where she raised her two sons. After a divorce and a twenty-two year career as a massage therapist, she retired to a small mountain town, until the call to be near family brought her to Beaverton, Oregon, where, in her 80’s, she lives a happily busy life.
