Synopsis (From the back cover):
In the summer of 1928, an eleven-year-old American-born son of Greek
immigrants travels with his parents and siblings to Greece to visit
their family village. There, he witnesses the brutal murder of his
father and grandfather by Albanian bandits who were directed out of
revenge by "the man with a hole in his face." The young boy, his
distraught mother, and two of his siblings return to the United States
a year later, leaving behind one of his brothers in the hands of a
wealthy uncle and aunt who turn out to be abusive and neglectful. The
younger brother runs away and jumps a ship as a stowaway, where he is
taken in by an empathetic crew who helps him reunite with his family
abroad. This is the true story of the author's ancestors. He walks you
through the process from start to finish of what it was like to be an
immigrant in the early 1900s and chronicles the banditry that plagued
the countryside of Greece for decades. It is a story of personal
tragedy, revenge, and justice. But most of all, it is a story of
community and survival.
--> Please let us know if you would like to receive this book to add to
your library. We will ship it free of charge within the USA while
supplies last.
Thank you,
Meleti
