The Days of Miracle and Wonder - Paperback

by Irene Zabytko (Author)

In 1992, just after the fall of the Soviet Union, a Ukrainian-American woman travels to Ukraine and boards a bus on an unlikely pilgrimage. In a style reminiscent of THE CANTERBURY TALES, the passengers-a swimmer, an artist, an interrogator, an actor, and more-tell extraordinary stories of ordinary people caught between Soviet realities and newly independent dreams. Told with warmth, humor, and deep compassion, THE DAYS OF MIRACLE AND WONDER is a gripping and timely glimpse into the complexities of balancing political pressures, collective responsibilities, and individual happiness.
