Jaryk Smith, a survivor of the Warsaw Ghetto, and Lucy Gardner, a southerner newly arrived in the city, are in the first bloom of love when they receive word that Jaryk's oldest friend has died under mysterious circumstances in a rural village in eastern India. Travelling there to collect his friend's ashes, Jaryk finds himself enmeshed in the chaos of local politics and efforts to stage a play in protest against the government-- the same play that he performed as a child in Warsaw as an act of resistance against the Nazis. Jaryk must decide how to honor both the past and the present, and how to accept a happiness he is not sure he deserves. -- adapted from jacket 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 650 0 Holocaust survivors |vFiction. 655 7 Theatrical fiction. |2lcgft 651 0 Getto warszawskie (Warsaw, Poland) |vFiction. 651 0 New York (N.Y.) |vFiction. 651 0 India |xPolitics and government |vFiction. 650 6 Survivants de l'Holocauste |vRomans, nouvelles, etc. |0(CaQQLa)201-0128408 |0(CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 Théâtre |vRomans, nouvelles, etc. |0(CaQQLa)201-0031587 |0(CaQQLa)201-0377299 651 6 Inde |xPolitique et gouvernement |vRomans, nouvelles, etc. |0(CaQQLa)201-0082193 |0(CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 7 FICTION / World Literature / India / 20th Century. |2bisacsh 650 7 FICTION / Jewish. |2bisacsh 650 7 FICTION / Historical / General. |2bisacsh 650 7 Theater. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01149217 650 7 Politics and government. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 Holocaust survivors. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958838 651 7 Poland |zWarsaw |zGetto warszawskie. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01928282 651 7 New York (State) |zNew York. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204333 651 7 India. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210276 655 7 Historical fiction. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01726640 655 7 Fiction. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 Romance fiction. |2lcgft 655 7 Historical fiction. |2lcgft 650 0 Immigrants |zUnited States |vFiction. 650 0 Guilt |vFiction. 650 0 Nineteen seventies |vFiction. 651 0 India |xSocial life and customs |vFiction. 651 0 New York (N.Y.) |xSocial life and customs |vFiction. 655 7 Novels. |2lcgft 776 08 |iOnline version:Chakrabarti, Jai. |tPlay for the end of the world |dNew York : Alfred A.
