{"product_id":"the-endless-steppe-growing-up-in-siberia","title":"The Endless Steppe: Growing Up in Siberia","description":"This is the remarkable true story of a family during one of the bleakest periods in history, a story that \"radiates optimism and the resilience of the human spirit\" (Washington Post).\nIn June 1941, the Rudomin family is arrested by the Russians. They are accused of being capitalists, “enemies of the people.” Forced from their home and friends in Vilna, Poland, they are herded into crowded cattle cars. Their destination: the endless steppe of Siberia.\nFor five years, Esther and her family live in exile, weeding potato fields, working in the mines, and struggling to stay alive. But in the middle of hardship and oppression, the strength of their small family sustains them and gives them hope for the future.\nThe first winner of the Sydney Taylor Awards was Esther Hautzig's The Endless Steppe: Growing Up in Siberia, and 2018 marks the 50th anniversary of this powerful classic.\nNOTE:Now with new cover\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 006440577X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.006440577X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Hautzig, Esther\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
