"And if we had stayed, where would we be now? What would our lives be like?" Decades after she and her family fled to Peru to escape a war that tore apart her country, Vera keeps alive the memory of all they've lost. In her solitude, she recalls her childhood with her brother, Alex, and friend Misha. As the bombs fell, the three children formed their own play army to stop the war from spreading. What part of herself did Vera leave behind in her homeland? What does she hope to regain by looking back? Her story, like that of many exiles, is marked by sacrifice and resignation, but also a silent current of hope that bursts forth unexpectedly. Told in two timelines that reflect the protagonist's divided life, Almost Everything Disappears is a powerful narrative about wounds that are still raw and remembered bravery.
