In one branch of this family, a woman repaired furs in Montana while her husband worked at a jeweler’s bench. In another, a boy came from Lebanon and made his home in California. Far away in Brazil, a grandfather led his town band.
Generations later, an American volunteer and a woman from São Luís met in Recife. Elsewhere, a young man from Italy and a woman from Bolivia married in Buenos Aires. Each couple brought lives begun far apart into the same family.
The watch, the music and the recipes belong together because their people do. Follow the branches back, and a familiar family opens onto many different worlds.
