Dancing Spoons and Khachapuri: A Russian Tale

Born of a Russian mother - a pianist at the State Conservatory - and expatriate English professor, a girl coming of age resolves a family dilemma while disclosing its mysterious past. After her father's strange disappearance during a business trip to Cairo, Anastasiya searches for those who can help her track him down. She finds, instead, a long, lost uncle whose lives in intrigue but appears to be simply an art restorer, currently living and working at the well-known monastery complex of Sergiev Possad. Dancing Spoons springs out of the author's love story with Russia herself.
