Clueless wanderer and other short stories, a

The book is comprised of a story «Clueless Wanderer» and a collection of shorter stories, that describe adventures of new immigrants from the former Soviet Union, their dreams and aspirations, success and failures while trying to adjust to the new language and culture. The characters in those stories are neither positive, nor negative ? just different people surviving the best they can. Those characters do not represent a certain ethnicity, neither they reside in a certain city. Their images are strange and familiar, helpless and arrogant, funny and pitiful, happy and miserable, frustrated with learning English and proud of their Americanized grandchildren, with whom they cannot communicate. Please don?t judge them too hard.
