Sinopsis

SIX STORIES. ONE EPIC JOURNEYWhen the world as you know it is rent into shreds, you either survive or you die.ááWhen your friends, your neighbors, members of your own family starve to death in front of your young eyes, only a steel drive to live will rescue you. If your government turns on you, killing everyone in your community, only foresight and the guts to listen to it will help you. When widespread poverty and lack of hope destroy the fabric of reality, only fortune can save you.ááWhen you survive any or all of these traumatic events, you live to create the next generation.ááCam and Tessa are the next generation.ááRaised by Holocaust survivors and refugees in New York City in the 1970âÇÖs, Tessa battles not only her own demons but those her family faced.áShe takes nothing for granted and relies only on herself as she navigates a dangerous and dark period of time in the city. Cam needs to escape the midwestern upbringing that began with his motherâÇÖs journey from somewhere in Eastern Europe to an orphanage in Iowa and with his great grandfatherâÇÖs early life in Ireland, and ends with his fatherâÇÖs spiraling and destructive behavior. Directionless and lost, Cam takes a risk to find his way.áAt a chance meeting, they discover that they are kindred spirits, and against the push from both sides, they clasp hands and decide to face whatever may come together.Woven dives deeply into events you learned about in history class and makes them personal. Written as a series of novellas, this book weaves the lives of four very different families into one story, showing that out of overwhelming adversity can come strength, hope, and a future no one predicted.
