About the book
A sweeping, stunningly ambitious novel about a young Ukrainian girl arriving in Kharkiv in 1930, determined to contribute to the future of her country, and her struggle to survive the devastation and trauma that ravage Ukraine.
‘No Country for Love is Doctor Zhivago meets Stalingrad – a mix of romantic historical fiction and gritty, reportage-like storytelling… The history is spot-on, going from pre-Communist times, through World War II, to the era of Stalin and after. And the stories it tells of the human heart, through the eyes of its heroine Debora Rosenbaum and those who befriend or betray her, are unforgettable’ NPR Best Books of 2024
