Franken's book tells the story of her parents: two young prisoners of war held captive on opposite sides of the world who survive in the most extraordinary of circumstances and eventually meet to find enduring love against all odds. Franken's mother, Sonja, survived the concentration camps of Nazi Europe including Auschwitz while her father, John, survived the Nagasaki atomic bombing as a Prisoner of War in Japan.

Their remarkable life story was also the subject of a television documentary and a feature film adaptation of the book is currently under way.

Roslyn is available throughout Florida and across North America to present her multi-media presentation to faith-based groups, students, senior groups, community organizations, corporations and non-profits.
