Snippets of a Vet's Life
Children of the WarBy Rod Graham
Length39m
About this audiobook
Children of the War is a collection of four true stories drawn from the author’s years as a veterinarian. During routine visits for dogs and cats, elderly clients sometimes began sharing memories they had carried quietly since childhood during World War II.
These are not battlefield stories. They are intimate accounts of survival, loss, guilt, and memory—told by people who lived through the war as children and carried its effects throughout their lives. Through small moments in veterinary practice, the narrator becomes an unexpected witness to these deeply personal histories.
Gentle, reflective, and sometimes confronting, the stories explore how the past lingers in ordinary lives, and how listening can reveal hidden truths long kept silent.
