My Life as a Russian Novel, Paperback/Emmanuel Carrere

Descriere & specificații

From the master of psychological suspense and the author of "The Adversary "comes "a work of infinite sorrow, infernal jealousy, and violent passion" ("Le Monde"). Set in Paris and Kotelnich, a small post-Soviet town, "My Life as a Russian Novel "traces Carrere's pursuit of two obsessions the disappearance of his Russian grandfather and his erotic fascination with a woman he loves but cannot keep from destroying. In prose that is elegant and passionate, Carrere weaves the strands of his story into a travelogue of a journey inward. Road trip, confession, and erotic tour de force this fearless reckoning illuminates the schemes we devise to evade ourselves, and the inevitable payment they exact."
