Synopsis

“Unraveling Time” is the story of how an American foreign correspondent and a newsmagazine office manager in Germany grew up on opposite sides of the Atlantic, met, married, and started a family in Bonn in the mid-1970s, and then experienced history in Moscow, New York City, Washington, London, Bonn and Paris before returning to Brooklyn in 2000. It was a turbulent, inspiring time, with the war in Vietnam, then the collapse of communism in Europe and the coming together of east and west in the European Union, followed by dementia: the 9/11 attacks, the disastrous American invasion of Iraq, and the unending worldwide war against terrorism. Dementia then struck this family in a personal way, an unraveling made bearable by enduring love and these memories.
