Helpful Score: 1

Excellent immigrant memoir of Jewish girl born in Krakow shortly after the end of WW2, while her parents were in hiding. At the age of 10, Eva, a promising young pianist, is uprooted to Vancouver where she struggles to find her voice in society. Interesting observations on European Jewish culture, life in Krakow during communism, and Canadian/American intellectual life.
