–(PR.com)– Will
Thieman,
an
avid
traveler
who
studied
history
at
Ohio
Wesleyan
University,
has
completed
his
new
book,
“Now
and
Then”:
a
compelling
and
heartfelt
novel
that
follows
two
siblings
who
are
sent
away
from
Nazi
Germany
to
live
in
Paris
during
the
Second
World
War.
After
settling
in
the
city,
the
two
siblings
discover
their
contrasting
personalities
and
ideals
will
place
them
on
separate
paths
as
they
navigate
the
impending
German
occupation.

“Set
against
the
backdrop
of
World
War
II,
this
gripping
narrative
follows
the
contrasting
paths
of
Anna
and
Hayden
Schmitt,
siblings
hailing
from
Munich,
Germany,”
shares
Thieman.
“Despite
being
raised
under
the
same
roof,
their
personalities
diverge
starkly:
Anna,
a
staunch
advocate
for
her
convictions,
while
Hayden
strives
for
acceptance
from
his
peers
at
any
cost.

“Fearing
for
their
children’s
safety
in
Nazi
Germany,
Anna
and
Hayden’s
parents
make
the
difficult
decision
to
send
them
to
live
with
relatives
in
Paris.
However,
this
move
leads
to
a
growing
chasm
between
the
siblings.
In
the
City
of
Lights,
their
once-close
bond
fractures
amidst
the
complexities
of
friendships,
romantic
entanglements,
and
their
differing
approaches
to
navigating
the
perilous
German
occupation.
As
they
grapple
with
these
divergent
paths,
their
lives
become
entwined
with
the
struggles
and
challenges
of
wartime
Paris.”
