"A powerful story of resilience that provides firsthand insights into life in the Soviet Union."
- Kirkus Review
In this beautifully written memoir,
Margaret Mordukhovich traces her life from her early childhood during Stalin's era in the Soviet Union through her school years, marriage, and the birth of her children, to the process of emigrating during Perestroika and finally beginning a new life in the United States, ultimately settling in Ann Arbor, Michigan. She skillfully weaves together events, thoughts, feelings, and experiences with important historical context, allowing readers to gain a deeper understanding of the times she lived in and how they shaped her. She introduces us to the most important people in her life, both past and present, and invites readers to deeply understand the struggles of those times, as well as the unexpected triumphs.
