Almi: A Refugee is a true life story written by Tiiu Priilaid-Kleyn that not only sets out to tell the story of how a woman defies expectations and conquers the extraordinary trials of her life, but is also a tale of love, determination and faith. A farm girl, Almi was born in Paavli, on Saaremaa, her parents' farm in Estonia, in 1917 when the First World War was coming to an end. At the age of nineteen, she ventures to Tallinn, the country’s capital city, where she meets her husband Aleksander. And in 1944, with three children in tow, the young family members, fearing the Russian Communists invading their country, become refugees in Sweden. When Russia demands the return of Estonian refugees from Sweden, the growing family flees to South America, but ends up in South Africa where they struggle to make a decent life for themselves. This is their story. Almi: A Refugee is an extraordinary story about a woman who has an endless supply of endurance and hope. Guided by her mother’s diary, Tiiu Priilaid-Kleyn comes up with a story of dislocation that tugs at our hearts, especially because of the millions of Syrian, Iraqi and Afghan refugees pouring into Europe every day. What I like most about this biography is that it is not written out of sadness and frustration, but as an inspiration to anyone who is uprooted from their native lands and forced to live a complex life as a refugee. With pride and dignity, and against all odds, Almi and Aleksander raise their family in their adopted countries. Almi: A Refugee is a compelling read that follows a young family forced to flee their own country, but determined to find a home they can truly call their own.
