Meyer Raskin is a wealthy Jewish entrepreneur running a large
agricultural estate in Belarus on the western outskirts of the
Russian Empire in the early 20th century. His wife Chava feels out
of place and yearns for the quiet life of a Jewish shtetl. Together
they have six children, some of whom help their father on the
estate, while others are more interested in pursuing education or
getting involved in revolutionary politics. Their lives are
interrupted first by the Russian revolution of 1905 and later by
World War I, which eventually turns them all into refugees. This is
an autobiographical novel based on the author's family.
