About the Book

Eva’s childhood seemed to be a paradise. Her father, a powerful communist, introduced her to a life of the privileged. Eva attended private school, skated with international hockey stars, and dined with the Swedish king. But as Eva grew up in Stockholm surrounded with love, care, and warmth, she had no idea her paradise would eventually collapse like a house of cards in the wind. In a fascinating retelling of her life story, Eva Robberts-Vankova reveals how she found herself imprisoned between people she did not know or understand as her once loving father turned into a total stranger. While attempting to find her place in a world deprived of freedom, a confused and desperate Eva finally realized there was no place for her. It was time to go. As she reveals how her journey led her to love and a new chapter in America, Eva provides inspiration to others that with a little determination and a lot of hope, it is possible to overcome obstacles, create positive change, and ultimately find forgiveness and happiness. Fly, Honeybee, Fly shares the coming-of-age true story of a girl living in Czechoslovakia as her world collapses, forcing her to find her place in the world.
