It's Been A Long, Long Time

By Marianne Lods

This is a true story of a young woman whose life was interrupted by the invasion of Nazi Germany into Belgium in May of 1940. Suzanne Duchesne was an artist and textile designer when she married a Polish-Jew in 1937. Their love of the cosmopolitan lifestyle of Brussels ceased with the enemy occupation.It wasn't long before Suzanne became the head of her household and that of other family members. Her talent was used to forge false identity papers for the Resistance and put her in harm's way. Her husband's ethnicity made him a target and eventually a prisoner.Lives changed overnight, and all they prayed for was the arrival of the Allied soldiers to save them from the brutality of war. With the hope of war's end, Suzanne encountered a romance that would be the biggest change of her life and the beginning of a new legacy.
