“Portrait in an Oval Frame” is a literary fiction that deals with the eternal subjects of love and solitude, fate and chance, good and evil. It is a meld of facts and fiction, a tale of two generations of one family, a story of two brothers, two artists, who had never met until one day in New York….It is a queer coincidence that they meet by chance under unusual circumstances and immediately feel a connection. The resemblance between them is striking and makes them wonder about their past. The tragic and mysterious fate of their family and the dramatic story of a woman, depicted in a portrait in an oval frame, slowly unfold during their dinner conversation, when they reveal to each other their deepest secrets. The narration begins on June 22, 1941, the day when the German army invaded Russia. The events take the reader to a small town called Nevel, the first Jewish Ghetto in the Russian land, to postwar Austria and then to America. Finally, a strange interlacement of events helps them solve the mystery of their past, find lost love and discover the real meaning of their lives.
