Interest in Richard Katrovas’ memoir RAISING GIRLS IN BOHEMIA continues to grow. In this week’s issue, Kirkus Reviews  weighs in on Katrovas’ essays, calling the book…
“A distinguished writer and English professor chronicles his experiences living and loving between American and Czech cultures….At times brutally provocative, Katrovas’ essays, which also grapple more generally with otherness, faith and the role of art in society, are nothing if not stimulating….ultimately humane.”
