WHAT IS A FATHER'S BURDEN?
IS IT BLOOD, HONOR, OR THE TERRIBLE DUTY TO CHOOSE WHEN NO CHOICE SHOULD EXIST?
THIS BOOK BRINGS TOGETHER FIVE POWERFUL WORKS OF WORLD LITERATURE-BY PROSPER
MÉRIMÉE, NIKOLAI GOGOL, ALEXANDER KAZBEGI, ETHEL LILIAN VOYNICH, AND AKAKI TSERETELI-EACH REVEALING, IN ITS OWN VOICE, THE WEIGHT A MAN CARRIES BEFORE HIS CHILD, HIS PEOPLE, AND HIS OWN CONSCIENCE.
FROM THE HARSH MOUNTAINS OF THE CAUCASUS TO THE BATTLEFIELDS OF THE STEPPE, FROM SILENT SACRIFICE TO DEFIANT REBELLION, THESE STORIES CONFRONT A SINGLE, UNYIELDING TRUTH: THERE ARE MOMENTS WHEN A MAN MUST STAND ALONE BEFORE FATE.
IN THESE PAGES, FATHERHOOD IS NOT TENDERNESS ALONE-IT IS JUDGMENT, RESPONSIBILITY, AND, AT TIMES, TRAGEDY.
THIS IS NOT MERELY A COLLECTION OF STORIES. IT IS A JOURNEY INTO THE LIMITS OF HUMAN STRENGTH-AND THE COST OF CROSSING THEM.
