Description

Rosa Roshkin is five years old when her family is murdered in a pogrom and she is forced to leave behind everything she knows with only a suitcase of clothes and her father’s violin.

Somewhere Else is an epic generational novel about womanhood and Judaeo-Scottish experience across two World Wars, the creation of Israel and the fall of the Berlin Wall. It explores today’s most difficult and urgent questions, not least how to find identity in displacement.
