Dreams of Silver

by Mina Baites

Dreams of Silver weaves together the poignant tale of Lilian Morrison, possessing only a battered silver music box as a keepsake of her beloved sister Emma, lost to the horrors of wartime London. The music box, a family heirloom surviving two world wars, symbolizes the bond of an unforgettable family fragmented and scattered across continents—reunited in joy yet haunted by the tragedy and the mystery of Emma's untimely death. As Lilian delves into Emma's final days post-Kindertransport separation and the ominous shadows of the London Blitz, she uncovers intertwining lives marked by the endurance of wartime anguish. From the protective courage of her grandmother in Cape Town to the craftsmanship of a Dublin woodworker with a music box eerily akin to her own, Lilian's quest for truth unearths the concealed legacies of the past, delivering a narrative of healing, hope, and reclaimed connections.
