For them that Atlantic crossing marked the beginning of a great adventure: a new country, a new life and a new husband. For many children of these unions came a dual heritage, a cultural divide that made "home" a difficult place to define.In __Old Stones__, the gap between A. S.

An unsentimental look at a war-time union, __Old Stones__ is an inquiry into a woman's two very different selves, as well as a candid examination of a cultural divide.
