Deep in a Polish forest stands a chimney tree, its trunk hollowed out by lightning. It is 1935, and the tree is a cherished meeting place for Miriam, the beautiful daughter of the Rabbi of Dubnitz, and her Christian love, Tadeusz. Miriam's life is devastated when her forbidden liaison is discovered; she is quickly married to a man from another town and sent away. His cruelty and madness send her fleeing to Warsaw, where she finally finds happiness and a new family. Life begins afresh until the Holocaust, when Miriam is separated from her husband and son, faced with the loss of everything she holds dear.
Miriam's quest to reunite her family moves from shtetl to city, from Poland to New York, Soviet Russia and Israel. An epic tale of one woman's determination to survive and rebuild her life.
