Weaving the Strands of Life: a memoir - 4740

Joanna Kubicka Fenn has created a tapestry of her life. Born in 1936 to an upper class Polish family, she lived in Egypt, Poland, Soviet Union and USA. Written in a diary style, she weaves together various periods of her past with the present. This is both a personal journey, and a journey through history and cultures. Fenn deftly carries us through her life in Eastern Europe as a child and young woman. Through memories, journals, stories and poems, the author deals with themes of joy and sorrow, successes and losses, love and despair and explores the part that memory plays. A book of rare honesty and warmth, Weaving will inspire readers to reflect on the richness of their own lives. As a journalist, translator, teacher, poet and writer in Europe and America, the author provides a unique perspective on both cultures. Joanna currently lives with her husband, Donnelly Fenn, in Ashland, Oregon.
