Catching up on my recently read posts! I am fortunate enough to have a used bookstore near me that often carries Europa novels - and my daughter and I trekked there on Easter Sunday. I had long been wanting to read this and I ripped through it in a day. It is a story about the brutality of Russia during the 20th century and the horrors inflicted on its own citizens. It is also a story about memory and perseverance and connection. #europacollective
