Holiday Book Recommendation for HistFic Lovers

If you Caroline Futoranneed a good holiday gift for those who enjoy historical or literary fiction, check out my editing client Caroline Futoran's "A World In Which We Live."

A deeply moving story of love and passion, "A World in Which We Live" tells of a courageous woman who tries to keep her family together and safe despite living in two worlds. Born in 1891 as the granddaughter of a famous master musician in the Tsar’s concert orchestra in Saint Petersburg, Russia, Helena devises a plan to escape Bengin, Poland, to the United States with her children fleeing from the horrors of prejudice and terrorism.

While leading her family through a miraculous escape from a cruel world, she decides to liberate one of her sons from the Polish Army who is soon to be sent into combat. To save his life, she hatches a dangerous scheme to illegally get him out of the army camp and join her in the United States.

"A World In Which We Live" is available on Amazon.com.
