Instead, they encounter heartbreak and tragedy, while all around them Soviet policies, cruel but familiar, are giving way to untested concepts such as glasnost and perestroika and a brief flourishing of hope before the next repressive regime take root.This is the hour between dog and wolf, twilight, when one state has ended and another has not quite begun.Although it depicts a chaotic and desperate era, this exceptional debut novel pulsates with life.
