Krystyna was destined for a life of hard physical labor. The eldest child in a small Polish farming community, she helped her family scratch a meager existence from the soil. Disappointed in her beloved but volatile binge-drinking father, she is desperate to avoid the fate of her depressed, melancholic mother. Though she squirrels away every penny for a train ticket to the big city, where she dreams her aunt will take her in and love her, she despairs of ever having enough. When she turns eleven, an innocent mistake makes her the target of vicious small-town gossip. Then a miraculous opportunity presents itself. Certain her prayers have been answered, Krystyna embarks on a dangerous journey to an uncertain future. Will she find a safe haven-and the chance to experience childhood-before it's too late? Never Young is a compelling story, exploring the complexities of family and the power of faith.
