The Knife Sharpener's Bell
Description
Reviews
"An assured and affecting first novel. The imminence of disaster - sensing it will come, not knowing how - infuses this tale of a Winnipeg family resettling in ancestral Ukraine? The emerging Holocaust lurks like a slumbering monster, determinedly denied until it begins to claim victims. " - Globe and Mail
"Rhea Tregebov offers readers a compassionate and generous glimpse into a little-known aspect of history: Canadian immigrants whose idealism led them back to the country from which they had fled before the Russian revolution. Viewing this era through a unique lens, Tregebov deftly portrays this west-meets-east perspective, while tracing the twists and turns of being Jewish under Stalin. " - Lilian Nattel
