Meer over het boek

The narrative unfolds through the eyes of a nearly century-old mother recounting her harrowing experiences in twentieth-century Ukraine. Her tale is marked by the brutal realities of the 1917 revolution, the oppressive regime of the commissars, and the devastating Golodomor famine that claimed millions of lives. Amidst this backdrop of struggle, her family's confinement in a dungeon exemplifies the dire circumstances they faced. The story also touches on the impact of World War II, highlighting the loss of her father, a pilot betrayed by the very regime he served.
