    About this ebook

    The most revolutionary thing you can do is live.

    Rasa is a young wife and mother, taking care of home and family against a backdrop of a crumbling Soviet economy. In 1987, it's a world where the most valuable currencies include fresh flowers and real coffee, and Rasa's negotiation skills are challenged when she seeks solutions in the fight for her youngest son's life.

    It's a busy life. Yet she – like others from her homeland of Latvia – yearns for more: to see her small nation regain its independence from the USSR. And while the Iron Curtain may be crumbling from within, a superpower doesn't fade away without a fight.

    The Latvian people cling to their heritage, daring to raise their flag and sing their nation's anthem in defiance of communist rule. As tensions spiral, Rasa learns that revolution isn't always fought and won with guns. Sometimes a song can be stronger than bullets.

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      The villagers of Yockenthwaite knew him as ‘Jack Dull’, ‘Jack Dolt,’ or sometimes just ‘The Dullard’. His real name was John Dullard, last in a long, illustrious line of Dullards, and a man – so they said – of quite miraculous stupidity. The kind of
