“For the Wittgenstein family, the summer of 1915 was a time of both prosperity and unease...”
--blurb on Danielle Steel- Echoes (2004)

“...The appalling Forms appear,
And the great deities who hated Troy.

Then verily all Ilium seemed to sink
In flames, and from her base Neptunian Troy
To be o’erturned. As when an ancient ash
Upon the mountain-top, by axes hewed
With frequent blows, the peasants all contend,
Eager to overthrow it; all the while
With each concussion of its top, it nods,
Threatening, and trembling through its leafy hair,
Till vanquished by degrees, with many a wound,
It groans its last, and crashing down the cliff,
Drags ruin in its fall.”

--Cranch’s Vergil
