Overview
The remarkable fictionalised life of Iordana Ceausescu, who married Nicolae Ceausescu's eldest son, Valentin and became the mother of the Ceausescu's only grandson.
A deeply compelling tale of a woman caught inside the destruction of a Communist regime.
Iordana is a normal girl, brought up with all the perks of Romanias corrupt communist regime. Then she falls in love and marries the eldest son of her parents arch-rival, Romanias monstrous dictator Nicolae Ceausescu. They become the in-laws from hell, but she brings them their only grandson. And then theres the 1989 revolution, when crowds will kill anyone with the Ceausescu name. In all the blood and chaos, can Iordana keep her little son alive?
Drawn from eighty hours of unique interviews and told in Iordanas own voice; this true-life tale spins readers into the pleasures, excesses and horrors of late twentieth-century Europe.
