05/14/2020 12:01 AMI felt drawn to this different view of World War II and was unable to put down Orly’s story. As a Jewish 10-year-old in 1938, her world is torn apart as the Germans invade Vienna. Orly and her parents, who are professional musicians, struggle to obtain visas to La Paz, Bolivia. The story of how the family survives refugee status, the severe altitude, and emotional distress with courage, creativity, and love is both amazing and inspiring.
