New Europe Books celebrated its
10th anniversary in 2022. That this came in the year of

who brings international flair to her work.” 
—Elizabeth McKenzie,
author of The Portable Veblen, longlisted for the 2016 National Book Award for Fiction

from the foreword by Nick Thorpe,
BBC News Central Europe Correspondent

An Eastern European mail-order bride and her southern California husband clash in this rollicking debut novel.
