Inspired by her grandmother's true story of survival, perseverance and ultimate triumph, Carol Taylor's well-crafted "The Long Way Home" is a novel that women of all ages can share and enjoy, especially teenage daughters and their mothers. Follow Katya's perilous journey into womanhood as she is sold to the gypsies at age 13 by her father. Finding the strength to overcome the misery and hardship of years spent in virtual slavery, she makes a brave escape not only from the gypsy camp, but the oppression WWI has begun to exert on her native Austria. Leaving most of her family behind and aware that tremendous difficulty still lies ahead of her, Katya finds sanctuary in rural Saskatchewan, where she must begin her life anew. But will she find the true love her heart longs for? 
Years later, it is Katya's own granddaughter who longs to know her grandmother's story, to know the truth that lies behind the old woman's quiet dignity and deep strength. Katya, in sharing with her granddaughter the struggles that were uniquely hers, weaves an intriguing tale that confirms there is no such thing as an ordinary life, that it was only through a journey encompassing adversity, fear, courage, and love that she finally found "The Long Way Home".

Taylor,Carol

Both endearing and disturbing, Coal Fire is the coming of age story of Sidney Gerstein who, as a Jewish boy growing up in a Christian coalmining town in Northeastern Pennsylvania during the 1950s, searches for the meaning of life and the Holocaust, ponders the existence of God, and explores his ethnic heritage and Jewish identity. 
At times, Sidney has nightmarish experiences that leave him emotionally shaken, guilty, and confused. Coal Fire, on another level, tells about a time of major economic and social upheaval in the coalmining region, and how these societal disturbances impact Sidney and his extended family.
