Arges
No Customer Reviews
Romania has tried over the last decade to erase the painful images of its orphanages seen around the world: starved and abused children, many hooked on glue huffing. Yet, according to historian Ian Hancock, over 80,000 children still languish in Romanian orphanages. Arges describes in detail the fate of one such child and how her existence is intertwined with an assassination attempt on the 'monster of the Carpathians', Nickolai Ceauscescu during the Christmas revolution of 1989. Told through the eyes of Andrena and Ceausescu's chief architect in alternating chapters, Arges is a riveting story of survival and, ultimately, redemption.
