Customer Reviews

Looking at America as a 1st generation Ukrainian-American.

Bicultural Americans may recognize a part of themselves or the people they've grown up with in this story of a Ukrainian family living on American soil, but not quite yet a part of America. The rituals, superstitions, songs, and celebrations described are familiar, evoking smiles of memories and nostalgia. This book stays with you, prompting an occassional rereading.
