Mrs. Moses is a small woman with a big heart and enormous courage. The only survivor of a Cossack raid on her village, she takes with her a big cast-iron frying pan, so heavy that she can only sling it over her back. Yet this is no ordinary frying pan, it's The Family Frying Pan, blessed with a Russian soul. From this frying pan Mrs. Moses manages to feed the various refugees who are travelling with her across Russia to freedom. In return, each of the group must tell a story around the campfire at night, stories of compassion and bravery, of human frailty and, above all, of hope.©2013 Christine Courtenay; 2014 Bolinda Publishing Pty.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The narration was great and I loved the way the stories were interwoven around the bubbling food cooking in the frying pan. The characters were delightful as were their stories.

Engaging set of stories

Liked Humphrey Bower's accent much better than the woman narrator. He is simply brilliant and renders Courtenay's books just sublimely.
I'd give his portion of the narration a 10 if I could!

Stick with Humphrey Bower-- there's no one better

This book held my wifes and my interest on a driving trip. The stories are engrossing and you really wonder at the end are they true? Very enjoyable and well narrated.

I am a big fan of Bryce Courtenay after an Aussie friend recommended him. I have, with this book, have now read them all. This book was beautifully written, narrated and produced. I couldn't put it down as it was so captivating. All of the characters were wonderfully developed. I can't recommend this book enough.

Wonderful story from an amazing author
