Book excerpt: Family, liberty, love, and country are things worth preserving. They are the themes of this epic tale of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, one of the most dramatic episodes of the Cold War. By 1956, the people of Hungary are fed up with living under Communist rule. Their anger erupts in a storm of revolution felt across the world. Among the millions swept up in the storm are...Pal Varga, a soap factory worker who warned his family in vain about it...Rudolf Varga and Julia Kun, young lovers whose dreams of marriage are threatened by the revolution..Boris and Theresa Varga, a Communist married couple more loyal to their country than to their political party...Kathryn Nerdin, an American teenager seeking a new love in face of the death of her boyfriend. From the embattled streets of Budapest, Hungary, to the peaceful neighborhoods of Provo, Utah, Things Worth Saving presents a tale in the tradition of Dr. Zhivago and A Farewell to Arms.
