About this listen

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.

Heartwarming Touching and Well Read

If you've liked any of the other Bryce Courtney books you'll like this one as well. It's short but well worth the cost. Enjoy!

Another Great Story

A piece of Russian history couched in the stories of fleeing migrants told with sensitivity and humour.

Good story, weak execution

The intertwined stories were interesting, but the female narrator was very weak. The accents were poorly done, slipping family often, and there was no intonation difference between different characters.
