About
A hauntingly beautiful intergenerational novel blending history, memory, and family legacy.
Our Narrow Hiding Places follows eighty-year-old Mieke Geborn, a Dutch grandmother whose quiet life on the New Jersey shore is upended when her grandson Will and his wife Teru visit, bringing questions about their family’s past. As long-buried secrets about Mieke’s childhood in coastal Holland during the final years of World War II resurface, the novel reveals hidden truths about survival, love, and the echoes of history that shape generations. Illuminating and lyrical, this story interweaves personal memory with the broader human experience of confronting what we have lost and what we must remember.
“A hauntingly beautiful intergenerational story, full of grace and insight.” — Dan Chaon, author of Sleepwalk
