Last Train to Freedom: A Young Jewish Family's Escape from Behind the Iron Curtain

Galina Cherny's Last Train to Freedom is the riveting true story of her young family's daring escape from the barbed wire borders of the USSR. It's a raw tale of growing up in the Soviet Union. And a love story that defies all odds.

Born into a patriotic military family, her existence was constrained by the dull daily grind of the post-Stalin era, magnified by the fact that she was Jewish.

Could a chance encounter in her beloved hometown Kiev, capital of then-Soviet Ukraine, change everything for the 21-year-old Galina? Is she willing to walk away from her life and never return? Betray her parents? Her country? The choice proves much harder than she ever imagined.

Through Galina, we learn of her family's harrowing emigrant journey. The struggles, setbacks, and triumphs of starting life over in a foreign land. Will she ever be at home again?
