![]() ![]() This comes and goes between a story of the history of the Jewish Shtetl of Trochenbrod, starting over 200 years ago with the death of a man in a accident in a river, with the river giving back his daughter, who is adopted by an elderly man in the village, and accounts her growing up, her marriage and then moved on the our Hero’s grandfather and his growing up in pre-war Ukraine, and how he escaped death. Fans of the movie will be familiar with the part of the story that is Alex accounting Jonathan Safran Foer being in Ukraine with them as they search for a woman who saved his grandfather. ![]() The actually story is a mixture of 3/4 stories in one…. I am a big fan of the movie of this book, and having visited Ukraine every year since 2003, I have met many Alex’s and his Grandfather (with a few “seeing eye b*tch”es) so was looking to hopefully learn more about the whole back story through the book. ![]()
