Vacaciones en el Cáucaso

Vacaciones en el Cáucaso

Iordanidu, María

One morning in July 1914, Ana, a teenager from Constantinople, leaves the family home where she lives with her beloved grandmother Loxandra to spend a month on vacation in Stavropol, in the Caucasus. However, as soon as the trip begins, she loses her aunt among the crowd of the Batumi station, from where they had to leave together. After two months wandering through Russia, she finally arrives in Stavropol, where she has to find a job as an English teacher to get ahead. Against all odds, the outbreak of the First World War and the Russian Revolution will prevent him from returning home for five years, in which he learns Russian, becomes fond of Slavic cuisine, adapts to long winters, endorses the customs of his new family and he knows love. María Iordanidu threads in Holidays in the Caucasus a story as fast-paced and emotional as her own life, which she tells with the same freshness, dynamism and unmistakable sense of humor with which she already gave life to her unforgettable Loxandra.
