Zoltan is dying. His devoted but long-suffering sons, Ben and Frank, are
trying to prepare themselves and their families for his eventual
departure... but they can't quite bring themselves to believe that the end
is really at hand, and neither can Zoltan himself. But as he faces the end
of his life, he discovers a heartbreaking secret from the War that will
ultimately bring the family together - or irrevocably disrupt it. Set in
both mid-20th century Hungary and contemporary Toronto, this is a deeply
moving novel that revels in the energy of its extraordinary characters.
