Letters From Prague

Harriet Pickering is on a quest in search of her love. For a few brief weeks in the summer of 1968 she and Karel, a Czech student, were inseparable. But their happiness was snatched away when the Russian tanks crossed the border. Now, over twenty years later, Harriet and her ten-year-old daughter travel by train across a very different Europe.

Brussels and Berlin bring turmoil public and private, but it is in Prague that Harriet face an inner journey yet to begin.
