About this listen

This book is a true-to-life collection of 30 short stories from physicist and electrical engineer Roman Litovsky chronicling his family’s harrowing emigration journey in 1989 from Ukraine to the United States during the height of the impending collapse of the USSR. It details his life in Kyiv, traveling throughout Europe to gain freedom from the oppressive Soviet regime, settling in the U.S., and his life after that with a great engineering career at a prominent U.S. electro-acoustic company. It also provides an account of his family health problems, believed to have stemmed from radiation exposure from the 1984 Chernobyl nuclear disaster, and the tragedy of his youngest son’s death, to whom this book is dedicated.

If you like richly-detailed settings and stories of determination and spirit despite many obstacles and oppression, then you’ll love these sometimes funny, sometimes heartbreaking accounts written by Roman Litovsky in this poignant collection about his life.
