Pittsburg, California Mar 20, 2020 (Issuewire.com) - Dr. Levente Batizy’s The Biggest Hole in the Iron Curtain: The Batizy Story is an author’s masterpiece narrating a deep yet enthralling memoir of an immigrant. This book throws back into the 1956 Hungarian revolt, the daring escape, the capture at the border, and their final escape.
“Told from the perspective of the author, who was just ten years old when the family fled Budapest, this passionate, compelling story is hard to put down and can be read in one long sitting. Approximately half of the book is the author’s memoir, and half is a collection of biographies written by his siblings that deepen and strengthen the narrative with their individual perspectives. Each sibling in his or her way courageously recreated their lives, adjusting to American culture after their jarring engagement with history (or in the case of the eldest daughter who remains behind, the difficulty of adjusting to life in Budapest with her mother and grandmother and without her father, stepmother, and siblings). An important highlight of the principal author’s experience is his journey with his son to Budapest in 2006 to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of Hungary’s freedom from communist rule…” says Joe Kilgore of US Review of Books.
Batizy is the fifth oldest out of fourteen children. At ten, he was torn from his birth mother and grandmother to escape with his family from their native land during the 1956 Hungarian Communist revolution. Now yielding success in America, the momentous adjustments and trials led him and his son to return to Budapest to celebrate Hungary’s freedom.
