Sunrise Hill: Memoir of a Marriage

By Agnes J. Sutter Kazminski

In this moving memoir of a couple's married life, two people and their relationship mature. Beginning with the romance of their long-distance courtship, the book carries the reader through the varied experiences of their 35-year marriage. As the wife from Switzerland adapts to a new culture in the United States, the couple struggles to find a common life rhythm. They build their new home on a hilltop in Kansas and welcome family and friends from near and far. The wife attends graduate school and re-enters a rewarding professional career as a social worker. Life brings troubles, illnesses, and deaths in their families, as well as many joys. Their love of travel in the United States, Europe, the Far East, and Africa enriches their married life. Finally, aging, illness, and Alzheimer's disease demand adjustments in their relationship, handled with strength and grace. The author's openness offers insight into the workings of a meaningful marriage. Sunrise Hill is a true story of life and love, challenge and adventure, struggle and mutual support.
