Ida, on the other hand, has difficulty adjusting to life in the East Bronx and is constantly praying for the safety of her oldest son and his family who stayed behind in volatile Russia. After a decade of romance, celebrations, and prosperity, the Depressionfollowed by World War IIchanges everything. Jack is drafted, trained to be an interpreter, and parachuted into Europe.

When WWII ends, Jack is discharged, but he is discontent. A passionate reunion with his wife, running a business, his dream of going to college, even the joy of his young son all leave him unfulfilled.
