The Porcelain Doll - Hardcover

by Desislava Kaludova (Author), Linda Jay (Editor), Ioana Kaludova (Illustrator)

The Porcelain Doll describes the captivating journey of Gabriella, an infant born in the late 1960s in Eastern Germany. A saleslady in Germany presented Gabriella's mother with a surprise good-luck gift for her baby -- a delicate figurine with deep, dark eyes - an unforgettable porcelain doll.

For a typical young woman like Gabby, who grew up in the Communist-ruled country of Bulgaria, the thought of ever moving away from her homeland was beyond imagining.

Unexpectedly, in high school, Gabby met and fell in love with Aaron, a young Bulgarian Jewish medical student. Although they parted ways after a brief romance, the two lovers always carried an undying love for each other. When Gabby emigrated to the USA years later to expand her career opportunities in journalism, and to experience life in a free country, she suddenly and unexpectedly met up with her old flame again.
