The Girl from Nowhere by Eliska Tanzer
Born in a Romani ghetto, Eliska Tanzer has only one dream - to go to school. But education isn't for gypsy girls... This is her unflinching account of overcoming poverty and persecution, as she fights to find her place in the world as an educated woman.'A remarkable book about the hardest of beginnings written in a voice that is vibrant, sparkling, full of irrepressible humour, compassionate intelligence and ultimately forgiveness' Catherine Simpson
-- Catherine Simpson'A scintillating, devastating memoir, and a fiercely witty and unabashed tribute to the toughness of the human spirit' Damian Le Bas
'Eliska's story is an extraordinary and powerful read. It's the ultimate book about survival and an against-all-odds fight to make it in life. Highly recommend.' Clover Stroud
Eliska Tanzer is a writer and dancer, not always at the same time. She completed a Creative Writing degree at the University of Wolverhampton and this is her first book. Eliska spends her time in the Midlands with an uncomfortably large collection of notebooks and sequins.
