      The thirteen short stories show the life and challenges of a group of Romanian and Romanian Jew friends after they escape Romania of Ceausescu. Their destinies brought them first to Israel and subsequently to Canada or USA. The main characters are Dan and Vera, a couple struggling to come to terms with immigration, assimilation, and with Dan's mild borderline personality disorder. Vera's struggle to keep the balance in life and the sanity in her family as a first-generation immigrant is also shown. The stories are fiction inspired by real life.
