Publisher's Synopsis
"Fly Me To The Sun" is a novel based on the true stories of men and women who were born in the 1920's. These incredible people lived through everything the Great Depression and WWII had to offer; all before turning eighteen. The story begins when the parents of young children, Mary and Piotr, migrate from Poland. Introduced to the United States as outsiders in the face of the Second World War, their only ally is their neighbor Amina. Amina, lovingly referred to as Mina, is a poor girl whose father has to work three jobs in order to keep them afloat. That is, until his wife's infertility and his resulting alcoholism, throws all of them off balance. This forces Mina into adulthood before the age of ten.
