Description
When a young man arrives in Ukraine with a tattered photograph, he sets out to uncover the truth about his grandfather's past. His quest is aided by an unlikely trio: Alex, a translator with a unique way of speaking; a blind old man haunted by memories of war; and Sammy Davis Jr, Jr, a guide dog with a surprising talent.
As they search for answers, they uncover a complex web of time, language, and the horrors of war. What they find challenges their perceptions and turns their worlds upside down.
This novel is an astonishing feat of storytelling, weaving together elements of history, family life, and magical realism to create a unique and thought-provoking read.
