The story of a Hungarian-Jewish woman who experienced WWII and the October Revolution…eventually emigrating to Canada.
A gripping and moving novel. It is based on a true story about two women faced with trials and tribulations during war torn Europe. Politics (perscution of Hungarian Jews during World War II), poverty, and love separated them and forced them to move from one country to another until they eventually reunited again in Canada.
Each day is a struggle to survive…
About the Author: I grew up in a small, peaceful Canadian town, listening to the stories of my immigrant parents’ childhood experiences. Their courage and determination provided me with opportunities that many of their generation were denied. In discussing the large events that shaped the great wars, the impact on the little people is often overlooked. The course of millions of lives was changed, and millions of people suffered hunger, poverty, and torture. I feel that it was important to tell a few of their stories before they are forgotten.
„A Taste for Paprika” is a tenderly written history of love and loss and, ultimately, renewal, its secrets unfolding through the commotion of generations in the quieter moments of life: in kitchens, at tables, beneath the silver ting of soup spoons.
