Summary

Based upon a true story of a courageous couple and their three children escaping the Russian communists during the 1956 Hungarian revolution, The Eleventh Arrow not only captures the essence of the time period, but also gives listeners a glimpse at Hungarian history.

Bittersweet

I hope more stories like this will become more widely available in different languages so we can learn not to make the same tribal mistakes.
Having Hungarian ancestors of my own who stood up to both fascist and communist oppression in spite of the cost, I really appreciate Eva making her parents' story available, teaching me even more what our relatives collectively went through. If you are seeking more of this, 'the red wire and the Lubianka' is highly recommended, though very hard to find.
