Book excerpt: In pre-revolutionary Russia, Talia and Sascha lead lives of privilege and comfort. After the atrocities of the Soviet holocaust sweep the country and strip them of both home and family, Sascha, exiled to the Siberian Gulag, struggles valiantly to survive, while Talia, haunted by delusion across the sea in Canada, crafts a life fraught with danger. Though separated by the breadth of ocean and the rift of trauma and betrayal, shared secrets bind Talia and the brother she cherishes—secrets both bright and bitter, that someday, might come to light.A luminous and epic tale, Reseda spans the time of Russia’s last Tsar through the rise and fall of the USSR, exploring the fragility of family, the devastation of guilt, and the power of hope. A historical novel that transports the reader in time and place, Reseda flows from real diaries, offering a case study of healing for schizophrenia.
