ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONĀ
Of thirty-four Neumann family members, twenty-five were
murdered by the Nazis. One of the survivors was Hans Neumann,
who built an industrial empire in Venezuela. When he died, he left
his daughter a small box filled with letters, diary entries, and other
memorabilia. Ten years later Ariana finally summoned the courage
to have the letters translated and start reading them. That was the
seed for When Time Stopped, an epic family memoir. Neumann
brings each relative to vivid life. In uncovering her fatherās story
after all these years, she discovers nuance and depth to her own
history and liberates poignant and thought-provoking truths about
the threads of humanity that connect us all.
