Spanning nearly a century, from 1930s Siberia to contemporary
Brighton Beach, a page turning, epic family saga centering on three
generations of women in one Russian Jewish family-each striving to
break free of fate and history, each yearning for love and personal
fulfillment-and how the consequences of their choices ripple
through time. Odessa, 1931. Marrying the handsome, wealthy Edward
Gordon, Daria-born Dvora Kaganovitch-has fulfilled her mother's
dreams. But a woman's plans are no match for the crushing power of
Stalin's repressive Soviet state. To survive, Daria is forced to
rely on the kindness of a man who takes pride in his own
coarseness. Odessa, 1970. Brilliant young Natasha Crystal is
determined to study mathematics. But the Soviets do not allow
Jewish students-even those as brilliant as Natasha-to attend an
institute as prestigious as Odessa University. With her hopes for
the future dashed, Natasha must find a new purpose-one that leads
her into the path of a dangerous young man. Brighton Beach, 2019.
Zoe Venakovsky, known to her family as Zoya, has worked hard to
leave the suffocating streets and small minds of Brighton Beach
behind her-only to find that what she's tried to outrun might just
hold her true happiness. Moving from a Siberian gulag to the
underground world of Soviet refuseniks to oceanside Brooklyn, The
Nesting Dolls is a heartbreaking yet ultimately redemptive story of
circumstance, choice, and consequence-and three dynamic
unforgettable women, all who will face hardships that force them to
compromise their dreams as they fight to fulfill their destinies.
