Living with a German past in an American present. Thursday, June 5, 2014. Over the years I often wondered why my automatic response is not fight or flight, but freeze. Was it the repeated border crossings when I was still an infant - watching my mother pretending to be meek while the guards treated her like she was subhuman? Or does it go farther back? Last year, I came across this article: Memories pass between generations. We traded pdf’s of our books. His is titled Health, Happiness, and Fam...View my...

Living with a German past in an American present. Monday, November 17, 2014. Really. I watched Sophie polish off a half liter of beer and a pork knuckle; Brian’s stomach was a bit touchy, so he opted for soup to go with his beer. The food was better than I expected, and by the time we left I decided I was done pretending. After all, even if I lived in Germany, I would still be a tourist in Bavaria.

http://claudiaposersblog.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Living with a German past in an American present. Monday, March 31, 2014. Eulogy for my Father. I suppose it’s only natural that we try to summarize a person after they are gone. I could make a list of things about my father:. He loved to travel. He loved his family. He loved his work. He loved good food. He loved to be a host. He loved classical music. He loved harmonious space and light. He loved a good political discussion. He loved to read. Siegfried Poser January 23, 1925 - February 19, 2014.
