Following his father’s death, Aron Kohn finds a suitcase in his flat. It contains a manuscript written by a woman called Aurelia. The manuscript is Aurelia’s life story, a story that reveals major family secrets. The story begins in Bratislava in the early 20th century and jumps between a devastated Europe and wartime and post-war USA. AURELIA is a powerful story about not being able to choose your own path, about living without ever belonging. A magnificent and captivating story about a European woman navigating a brutal century in the shadow of the holocaust and the atomic bomb.
