Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 546
Book Description
Seventy years. A lifetime beginning in a tranquil Hungarian village, growing in a tragic time of political and ideological turmoil, the horrors of the Second World War, the humiliation of imprisonment in an American POW camp, the tyranny of Bolshevism, the crushing defeat of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. This is a captivating account of the nightmarish side of the 20th Century. Then, joining the tens of thousands of other refugees, the author’s search for a better life begins. Destination: America, the land of freedom. But life in the adopted homeland is marked by struggle and dogged determination to make good on a dream. The author unflinchingly chronicles the immigrant experience. This book is for readers who have the strong urge to look beyond the surface of what has been purported to be the 20th Century. This is not a writing of history. It is rather the writing of a life through which history reveals itself to those who have a receptive, critical mind and an open, compassionate heart.
