Vaclav and Lena, a novel about Russian-Jewish immigrants in Brooklyn - New York NY

Vaclavandlenacover
Today New York publisher The Dial Press, a division of Random House, releases Haley Tanner's debut novel Vaclav and Lena, a coming of age tale about Russian-Jewish immigrant children in Brooklyn. In my New York Journal of Books review I describe the book as "a tale of unconditional love; of attachment, separation, and reunion; and of trauma and healing." It's an engaging read that will appeal to teens, their parents, and anyone interested in the immigrant experience. via examiner.com

The Forward has an interesting interview with Haley Tanner, the author of Vaclav and Lena.
