Description
by Kristina Kalapos (Author)
Sailing Naked, a memoir surrounding Kristina's life and relationship with her father, a Hungarian Freedom Fighter turned political refuge, is a literal and metaphorical glimpse at their loving yet tumultuous relationship. Despite immigrating to the US on a VISA in recognition of his service to the Austrian border guards as a Hungarian translator, his life remained defined by the stifling Russians and their tanks. He pacified his struggles with drugs and alcohol until he took his last breath.
Where hope existed, despair prevailed. One could not fully grasp the emotional disparity levied by hoarding carrots, stealing a chicken, or rescuing the only surviving Freedom Fighter at the other end of Soviet bullets. If hindsight is the reflecting pool where mistakes live, there were a million ways Kristina and Frank could find peace together. If only life had a do-over button.Author Biography
