A Soul Divided: Memoir of a Modern Emigrant

CHICAGO - May 18, 2020 - PRLog -- Maka Kartheiser, the author of A Soul Divided, a Memoir of a Modern Emigrant,  inspires readers from all walks of life to keep moving forward, no matter what life throws at them.  The author's journey from the European country of Georgia, her beloved homeland, to the United States, is a story of hope, inspiration, and strength. The challenges, described in the memoir are similar for millions of fellow emigrants who also left their homelands to improve their lives.  Emigrants are divided between the love for their families, friends, language, culture, food and customs, and their new homes and lives.  Maka's memoir takes the reader's heart through the experience of reclaiming identity and culture.  The struggle to find one's place, one's self, and one's calling is universal.  Emigrants are destined to dwell among two countries, not fully belonging to either, divided between two homes.  A Soul Divided speaks to everyone whose journeys and hardships are unique.  It gives courage and hope. By writing A Soul Divided the author discovers her purpose and offers inspiration to all who struggle with significant change.

Along with offering the memoir, Maka created Rustaveli Publishing (www.rustavelipublishing.com) as a platform to enable and inspire other emigrants to share their journeys.
