520    "A dazzling debut novel--the story of a turbulent, 
       unlikely romance, a harrowing account of the lasting 
       horrors of the Second World War, and a searing examination
       of one man's search for forgiveness and acceptance"--
       |cProvided by publisher 
520    New York City, 1972. Jaryk Smith, a survivor of the Warsaw
       Ghetto, and Lucy Gardner, a southerner newly arrived in 
       the city, are in the first bloom of love when they receive
       word that Jaryk's oldest friend has died under mysterious 
       circumstances in a rural village in eastern India. 
       Travelling there to collect his friend's ashes, Jaryk 
       finds himself enmeshed in the chaos of local politics and 
       efforts to stage a play in protest against the government-
       - the same play that he performed as a child in Warsaw as 
       an act of resistance against the Nazis. Jaryk must decide 
       how to honor both the past and the present, and how to 
       accept a happiness he is not sure he deserves. -- adapted 
       from jacket
