Summary:
"Uncovering their remarkable and moving stories, Mark Mazower recounts the sacrifices and silences that marked a generation and their descendants. It was a family which fate drove into the siege of Stalingrad, the Vilna ghetto, occupied Paris, and even into the ranks of the Wehrmacht. His British father was the lucky one, the son of Russian-Jewish emigrants who settled in London after escaping the Bolsheviks, civil war, and revolution. Max, the grandfather, had started out as a socialist and manned the barricades against Tsarist troops, never speaking a word about it afterwards. His wife Frouma came from a family ravaged by the Terror yet making their way in Soviet society despite it all. In the centenary of the
Russian
Revolution, these stories revitalize the history of a socialism erased from memory - humanistic, impassioned, and broad-ranging. An exploration of the unexpected happiness that may await history's losers, of the power of friendship and the love of place that made his father at
home
in an England that no longer exists. Mark Mazower is a historian and the author of Salonica City of Ghosts: Christians, Muslims and Jews, 1430-1950"--Provided by publisher.
