Item Description

This item is for a novel:  On Bittersweet Place and a Collection of Short Stories.

ON BITTERSWEET PLACE by BJ member Ronna Wineberg, published by Relegation Books, tells the story of Lena Czernitski, a young Russian Jew, whose family flees from the Ukraine after the October Revolution. The story unfolds in Chicago during the 1920's, where Lena and her family settle.

The book explores family, self-discovery, young love, and the always relevant experience of the immigrant, the refugee, the outsider struggling to create a new home and better life in an unfamiliar place

ON BITTERSWEET PLACE was the winner of the 2016 Shelf Unbound Best Indie Book Competition.

The second book is a new collection of short stories, NINE FACTS THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE. The stories explore how the contemporary world affects our deepest relationships, our bonds to partners, spouses, children, parents and friends. The book also looks at how relationships change over time and how we come to terms with the past.
