A NOVEL ABOUT THE POWER OF LOVE
Florin was born in Iasi, Romania. As a young boy, he lived through rationing and the harsh conditions of the Ceaucescu regime, but always with the love of family and friends to balance out the hardships and mask the struggles.
As he gets older, he tries to untangle his own beliefs from those forced upon him... was a Communist way of life a bad thing? Were the stories about the Roma people true? Was life in the west really as depraved as his country would have him believe?
Aged 11, on Christmas Day, Florin witnessed the exalted Ceaucescus shot to death on TV, the true feelings of the Romanian people finally stripped bare. From that historic moment, he knew his life in Romania would be a changed one.
This is a story of the strength of people in the face of dictatorship, how love can sustain people in even the worst of circumstances. Florin's story and that of his family allow you to see behind the curtain.
She has a BA in English Literature from the University of Strathclyde, and can speak Romanian at conversational level. The author enjoys travelling with her husband and children, with a particular soft spot for Spain... where she met Florin on holiday .
