The Country
That Lives
Within Me
A Novel
“The Country That Lives Within Me” ("Tara care traieste in mine") is an emotional journey of self-discovery and transformation. Ana Sala’s experience of immigration and displacement is a powerful backdrop for exploring universal themes like love, friendship, loss, and identity, which makes the story relatable to many readers. Ana’s tumultuous marriage marks the beginning of a cavalcade of events and family dramas that force her to travel between Canada and Romania to reconcile her past. A grownup son who searches for his own identity, a quiet mother trapped in her own mind, an aging father looking for love, and a therapist friend. They all come together into a tapestry of tales and hope that help Ana find the place where she belongs.
Quote from the book
"As an immigrant, I learned that people, like words, are broken, imprecise, unpredictable.
I learned that, if you came from a dictatorship that stripped you of dignity through a culture of fear, Canada was a place to heal and grow."
