An Invented Life is a story of spiritual and factual exile. It is the story of the Chertok family's life after the Russian Revolution in Eastern Europe and England told through Nina in her coming of age years between the two World Wars. Eminently readable, the book evokes the rich flavor and wit of pre-war Eastern European life in colorful descriptions of place, atmosphere and character. It also brings the reader face to face with the loss and disappearance of that world.
