The narrative revolves around a Hungarian refugee who arrives in America after the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. Young Attila struggles to make sense of life as an adolescent, but also within his family who are neither Hungarian nor American, but who seem to live in a separatist community of Hungarian-Americans bottled up in a historical and political time warp. Caught between two worlds, his past and his present, Attila?s conflict comes to a head when he falls in love with the ?wrong? girl. His deep love for Lyudmila pits him against everything his family believes in, his religion, and the call to arms in an unjust war. And the final pages of the novel reveal secrets that explain much of what Attila was really fighting against ? and what he was fighting for. This remarkable book keeps the reader fascinated until the very end.
