We Were Free is a novel written by Constantin Joffe. Set in the Soviet Union during the 1950s, the book tells the story of a family who is forced to flee their home and country due to political persecution. The protagonist, Lev, is a young boy who witnesses the arrest of his father and the subsequent disappearance of his mother. He is left to take care of his younger sister and navigate the dangerous world of post-Stalinist Russia. Along the way, Lev meets a group of dissidents who are fighting for freedom and democracy. With their help, Lev and his sister are able to escape to the West and start a new life. The book explores themes of political oppression, family, resilience, and hope. It is a gripping and emotional tale of survival and freedom in a tumultuous time in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
