Anna & Jenny

By Hendrik E Sadi

A Jewish woman marries a Norwegian man and gives birth to a boy and places the child in an orphanage home in southern Norway under an assumed name when Germany invades Norway in 1940. She and her husband then join the Norwegian resistance movement. Near the end of the war, her husband is shot and dies, and she is put in an institution when she has a mental breakdown. The boy then comes a ward of the state and is adopted by an American couple when he is 10, along with a 1year old girl. He lives a life of privilege in Cairo, Egypt and elsewhere in the Middle East, where his adopted father is the Middle East representative for an American bank. His life though is troubled and uncertain by the erratic, alcoholic behavior of his adopted father to such an extent that his adopted mother takes him and her daughter back to her family in America. When he turns 40, he becomes curious about his biological parents and goes back to Norway and is reunited with his mother.
