Chocolate moon

Born during WWII in France, my tender years were far from conventional. My Catalan parents, political refugees having fled from the Spanish Civil War in 1939, were held in a Concentration Camp in Argeles Sur Mer. Raised and educated in France, I pursued my higher education after I migrated to The USA in my teens. I eventually settled in the magical State of Hawaii, where I raised my two sons. Anger, guilt, and resentment, rooted in my early family relationships and central to my daily activities for far too long, needed to be put to rest with my prose. I hope readers will find value in my lifes journey, peppered with enriching experiences and a myriad of adventures. Maturity has helped me glean and appreciate the numerous lessons that I have been blessed to encounter along the way. The highs and the lows of my quest have been sweetened by a number of caring and supportive individuals who have stood by me, some with unconditional love, and many featured here. It is with a grateful heart that I present Chocolate Moon – A Life from Darkness to Light. July 2020
