This is the sequel to The Russian Concubine and even if I didn't like Kate Furnivall I would have picked it up just to see how the story ended. Lydia Ivanova ends up going back to Russia to track down her father who is still alive and in a labor camp. Her half brother Alexei travels with her and she gets a protector in the guise of the big grizzly bear of a man from the first The Girl from Junchow. It's a bit of a harrowing journey for Lydia for two reasons, 1 it's a pretty harrowing journey for anybody who's This is the sequel to The Russian Concubine and even if I didn't like Kate Furnivall I would have picked it up just to see how the story ended. It's a bit of a harrowing journey for The Girl from Junchow for two reasons, 1 it's a pretty harrowing journey for anybody who's not used to Communist Russia to have to travel through Communist Russia and not get sent to a labor camp or shot, and 2 because she doesn't know if her lover from the first novel, Chang An Lo, is okay. Chang stuck around China to help with the People's Revolution so he's pretty unavailable for comment for the first third of the book. He resurfaces and his and Lydia's relationship is just as yummy as I remember, though some might say his ability to sweep in and save teh day every single time Lydia needs him might be just a titch contrived. Lydia is able to track down her father and she sortof plays at seducing a higher up in The Girl from Junchow Communist Party who almost screws her over doesn't it suck when you can't totally coast on your good looks? Although, it worked within the novel's universe and the way it resolved The Girl from Junchow made sense. At the end of the The Girl from Junchow Lydia doesn't get a complete happy ending. She finds out things she probably didn't want to know, she betrays and gets betrayed, her relationship with Chang is tested and Chang's own belief system is challenged a time or two. Kate Furnivall doesn't disappoint, but there were a few places where the reader's going to have to suspend disbelief a little. View 1 comment. Aug 09, NatalyaVqs rated it really liked it.

I give up, I couldn't even finish this book. I like historical fiction and all but this one was not my cup of tea.

Lydia has not seen her father The Girl from Junchow she was five years old but what memories she has of him are loving ones. To think that he is still in a labor camp in Siberia is heartbreaking to her. Being a stubborn willed seventeen year o Once again Furnivall managed to captivate me with her story of Lydia Ivanova.

He could feel it dying The Girl from Junchow his own lungs, and his fear for Lydia tore his heart into pieces. He called out.

Title: A Girl from Mogadishu Based on the testimony of Ifrah Ahmed, who - having made the extraordinary journey to escape war-torn Somalia - emerged as one of the world's foremost international activists against Gender Based Violence and Female Genital Mutilation. Written by Production. I saw this film The Girl from Junchow night at the Mill Valley The Girl from Junchow Festival. Although it lacks the polish of a Hollywood film, it was compelling, dramatic and beautifully shot. I hadn't known, for example, about economic aspects of FGM. The film uses The Girl from Junchow activist's testimony from her speeches and writings as a subtle background narration in a dramatization of her life. It follows her as she flees war-torn Somalia and escapes to Ireland, where she is granted asylum as a refugee. Later she returns to Somalia, and this is the most dramatic aspect of the film. Hundreds of millions of women have had FGM or are at risk. I hope this film is released nationally so that more people will gain an understanding of the issue. Looking for some great streaming picks?
