Synopsis Broad Is My Native Land by : Lewis H. Siegelbaum
Whether voluntary or coerced, hopeful or desperate, people moved in unprecedented numbers across Russia's vast territory during the twentieth century. Broad Is My Native Land is the first history of late imperial, Soviet, and post-Soviet Russia through the lens of migration. Lewis H. Siegelbaum and Leslie Page Moch tell the stories of Russians on the move, capturing the rich variety of their experiences by distinguishing among categories of migrants—settlers, seasonal workers, migrants to the city, career and military migrants, evacuees and refugees, deportees, and itinerants. So vast and diverse was Russian political space that in their journeys, migrants often crossed multiple cultural, linguistic, and administrative borders. By comparing the institutions and experiences of migration across the century and placing Russia in an international context, Siegelbaum and Moch have made a magisterial contribution to both the history of Russia and the study of global migration.The authors draw on three kinds of sources: letters to authorities (typically appeals for assistance); the myriad forms employed in communication about the provision of transportation, food, accommodation, and employment for migrants; and interviews with and memoirs by people who moved or were moved, often under the most harrowing of circumstances. Taken together, these sources reveal the complex relationship between the regimes of state control that sought to regulate internal movement and the tactical repertoires employed by the migrants themselves in their often successful attempts to manipulate, resist, and survive these official directives.

Synopsis Your Native Land, Your Life by : Adrienne Rich
A major American poet faces her own native land, her own life, and the result is a volume of compelling, transforming poems. The book includes two extraordinary longer works: the self-exploratory "Sources" and "Contradictions—Tracking Poems," an ongoing index of an American woman's life. The poet writes, "In these poems I have been trying to speak from, and of, and to, my country. To speak of a different claim from those staked by the patriots of the sword; to speak of the land itself, the cities, and of the imaginations that have dwelt here, at risk, unfree, assaulted, erased. I believe more than ever that the search for justice and compassion is the great wellspring for poetry in our time, throughout the world, though the theme of despair has been canonized in this country. I draw strength from the traditions of all those who, with every reason to despair, have refused to do so."

Synopsis My Native Land by : Louis Adamic
BASED UPON THE AUTHOR’S EXCLUSIVE MATERIAL, THIS INCREDIBLE STORY OF YUGOSLAVIA—THE COUNTRY OF THE CROATIANS, SERBIANS AND THE SLOVENIANS—AND HER HEROIC STRUGGLE HOLDS A SIGNIFICANT LESSON FOR THE DEMOCRACIES In a sequel to The Native’s Return and Two-Way Passage, Louis Adamic, writing with deeply felt conviction, tells the tragic story of Yugoslavia under Axis domination and of a struggle for power that will vitally affect the future of Europe and America. Drawing on his intimate knowledge of Yugoslavia and its people and on personal eyewitness reports which have been reaching him through secret channels, he paints the grim picture of life and death under Axis occupation and shows what it actually means in terms of people’s lives. These personal stories and portraits are unforgettable. They go behind the headlines to the experience that is the lot of people not in Yugoslavia but all of occupied Europe, to the unbelievable heroism that lifts the heart and steels it for the time ahead. He tells also the story of Yugoslav resistance, of two years of intensifying guerrilla warfare, of a struggle that has been confused, bitter, tragic.
