Dust in the Wind: the Uprising C. Nick Potcovaru

This book has been in the making for about twenty years now, although it only took a bit over a year to write it; in one form or another it had always coexisted with my daily thoughts, never letting me forget that it was there, just waiting for the right time to be incarnated. That time, that "right time" is now. After a very long time, and through adversities too many to enumerate, against all odds, I am finally able to bring you "the book." This is the first volume in a trilogy I call "Dust in the Wind." Book two entitled "In Exile" and book three entitled "Coming to America" will follow soon. Although this book is a work of fiction, it is based on real events that took place in Romania between December 1989 and July 1990. This book is a tribute to the heroes who sacrificed their lives in December 1989, because they believed in freedom, democracy, and the triumph of the human spirit, to the . . . oh so many . . . their number as of yet still unknown, victims of the "events of 13-15 of June, 1990," to the countless ordinary people who never had a fair shake, to the ones left behind, but never forgotten.
