Through My Mother's Eyes

By Elizabeth Gross Mull

"We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses." -Carl Jung

Growing up in a family with a rich German heritage, Elizabeth Gross Mull and her brothers listened to her mother, Irene, relay stories of her colorful childhood and her parents' and husband's German origins and traditions.

Filled with personal anecdotes and the various life experiences and heartbreaking tragedies that shaped each family member's life, Through My Mother's Eyes is the story of not only how one generation can affect the next but also how, in the end, each person must ultimately choose his or her own path.

The author brings her mother's storytelling voice to life by writing the narrative from Irene's point of view. Irene relays, in vivid detail, her childhood, her marriage, and her life as a widow, all while preserving the best memories of her beloved family members.

Also providing thoroughly researched ancestral histories and personal journeys, Through My Mother's Eyes generously offers one family's past and shows how it relates to the future, ultimately illustrating how we are all connected through common experience and humanity.
