The free world

Bezmozgis, David 1973- (Author).

Summary: In the summer of 1978, the Krasnansky family, three generations of Russian Jews, escaped to freedom through a crack in the Iron Curtain and landed in Italy, where they spent the next six months. They immersed themselves in the carnival of emigration, an Italy rife with love affairs and ruthless hustles, with dislocation and nostalgia, with the promise and peril of a better life.
