The Road Home by Rose Tremain
The Road Home is the story of Lev, an immigrant in London recently arrived from Eastern Europe, who has left behind a daughter and mother. The book shows how he adjusts to a strange culture, new friendships, and the pain of separation from his old home. Liesl Schillinger, in the New York Times wrote that "Tremain elevates the subject beyond its outlines by making Lev not a statistic or a caricature or the standard-bearer of a trend but simply a man—fully embodied, his ignoble and noble acts presented without exaggeration, without excessive praise or condemnation."
