Forgiveness and Violets

I chose to live and succeed. Failure is an incident, not your identity…

The true story of how one woman found inner peace on foreign shores.

Forgiveness and Violets will take you from Eva’s childhood in Czechoslovakia, to her studies in Austria and the UK.

After experiencing poverty, trauma, and political manipulation, Eva began a journey of discovery, learning from the past, to forgive and heal.

Eva’s fifty-two short stories will move you to tears and laughter.

Every story contains its own moral and life lesson, designed to help you to find peace and acceptance in who you are, where you have come from, and the things you can accomplish.
