Fall River

Based on the life stories and personal memories of the author's mother, uncle, and aunt, Fall River is a multi-dimensional exploration of how family history, Ukrainian roots, and European war shaped the personal destinies of three Ukrainian Americans who were born in Fall River, grew up in interwar Poland, and returned to an America that was as alienating as it was welcoming.

Narrated from different, though intersecting, perspectives, Fall River paints a complex portrait of American emigrants forced by fate to become Ukrainian refugees and European immigrants.
