Ishi is a fictional epic story of a girl who at age three in 1988 gets lost across the border fence from West Germany into East Germany.
Raised by new parents in East Germany, memories of her past soon dissolve away, and Ishi grows up unaware that she had any other beginnings or parents.
Ishi’s biological parents, having lived a life of crime and espionage in the Middle East, reach a crisis in 2000. They flee for their lives! They find anonymity with new IDs in Western Canada. Intelligence agencies, discovering Ishi living as a seventeen-year-old in a small German town, push her to find her biological parents. And so, at the age of eighteen when Ishi is busy exploring romance and all the things that normally surround a bright beautiful eighteen-year-old girl, pressures are put on her that turns her world upside down.
As Ishi comes closer to reconnecting with her biological parents, she faces a terrible moral dilemma that seems to have no good solution.
This tale spans more than a decade, an era that sees the fall of the German separation. As the pace of the story accelerates with the circumstances, elements of a normal teenaged girl are maintained despite the pace of the circumstances. The story of Ishi is thoroughly engaging from start to finish.
My Story
Decades of exploring and living in various cultures has enriched my perspective of the stage of life and the variety of actors on that stage.
Whether fiction, nonfiction, screenplays, short stories, or editorials, I find it beneficial to transfix into the experiences and emotions of others, be they fictional or factual.
If through my writing I cause others to find an avenue for personal expression, a way for personal escape into another world, or to think better, then I've succeeded.
