The Leonard Lopate Show | Apr 18, 2017

Ellen Umansky joins us to discuss her novel The Fortunate Ones, which tells the story of family in Vienna that was separated during World War II. The book weaves together the stories of Rose, the daughter who escaped from Germany to London, and a woman named Lizzie in modern-day Los Angeles. The two are connected by a painting.
