Julia Fieger asked Julia George:

When will Celia's story be published?

Julia George We (my husband George and I) have finished Celia's story. We have just signed with a publisher and the book will be released towards the end of this year. The title will most probably be Love and Redemption. We are so glad to be able to redeem Celia's character in this novel based on George's conversations with Celia and his father, Ivan Kovach, who met her in Vorkuta and married her when they were released. We were also grateful to George's father, Ivan, for his detailed and often entertaining memoirs of his time in the Soviet Gulag. Celia's story is one of the most horrific tales of the Twentieth Century and deserves to be told as she and Ivan told it to us. We will be posting news of the book on our website at juliageorgeauthor.com. Thank you for your interest. It's been a long road to finding a publisher - but not as long as the road Celia had to travel to find love and redemption in her life.
