"ECHOING THEMES FOUND throughout #Jewish #American #fiction, Anna Reader, the protagonist of #ElaineElinson’s new #novel #RadiantastheStars, has moved with her family to #Chicago from their native #Pavolitch (today #Pavoloch), a #shtetl in the #Russian Empire’s #Ukraine, to escape the region’s recent #pogroms. At the novel’s opening in 1911, however, twentysomething Anna is making the reverse journey back to Ukraine to help her cousin and other Jewish comrades usher in the revolution.
As #Elinson #writes in her #author’s note, the novel is based on events in her grandmother’s life."
