Film, Fiction, & Fine Wine: i named my dog pushkin with Margarita Gokun Silver

i named my dog pushkin (and other immigrant tales) is Margarita Gokun Silver's memoir, a collection of notes on how a Soviet girl became an American woman.

"When they arrived in the US, Margarita had a clearly defined objective -- become fully American as soon as possible and leave her Soviet past behind. But she soon learned that finding her new voice was harder than escaping the Soviet secret police."
