Soviet Union, 1941. Bronya, a violin prodigy, dreams of the Moscow Conservatory. Her younger brother, Avsey, cherishes his secret box of treasures and longs to have friends. But when the Nazis invade and they are torn from their family, the children are forced on a perilous trek across a burning land—hunted, hungry and alone. From Ukraine’s wheat fields to the high peaks of the Caucasus, You, With Your Waiting is a haunting story of lost innocence, unbreakable bonds and the fragile hope that endures even in war’s darkest hours.
