Ann S. Epstein's "Orphan Camp" will be published by Summerset Review online on December 15, 2018. “Orphan Camp” examines how the resilience that allowed Jewish children to survive during WWII made them resistant to adoption afterwards. Although set seventy years ago, the story speaks to today’s many war orphans.
Also, her novel, A Brain. A Heart. The Nerve. has been published. The novel is a fictional biography of Meinhardt Raabe, the little person who played the Munchkin Coroner in the 1939 Hollywood classic movie The Wizard of Oz. Meinhardt wants the respect given normal people, yet his disability makes him mistrust even those who can see past it.
