Carol Ginsburg is 83 years old. Her little sister, Grace Lauber, is 77. For decades they’ve lived an ocean apart and have grown accustomed to the distance. But the outbreak of the war caught Grace on a visit, and – for the first time in over 60 years – they found themselves living under the same roof.
The sisters chafed and chided, reminisced and bonded. This is the (small) story of their war, and a glimpse into the altered reality that so many of us have experienced during this latest – and grueling – forty-day war.
Our end song is Shalom Achot (“Hey Sister”) by Aya Korem. (Licensed by Israel Story through Acum)
