490 1  A Margellos world republic of letters book 
520    "A unique work of fiction from the troubled streets of 
       Ukraine, giving invaluable testimony to the new history 
       unfolding in the nation's post-independence years. This 
       captivating book is Serhiy Zhadan's ode to Kharkiv, the 
       traditionally Russian-speaking city in Eastern Ukraine 
       where he makes his home. A leader among Ukrainian post-
       independence authors, Zhadan employs both prose and poetry
       to address the disillusionment, complications, and 
       complexities that have marked Ukrainian life in the 
       decades following the Soviet Union's collapse. This new 
       work provides an extraordinary depiction of the lives of 
       working-class Ukrainians struggling against an implacable 
       fate: the road forward seems blocked at every turn by 
       demagogic forces and remnants of the Russian past. 
       Zhadan's nine interconnected stories and accompanying 
       poems are set in a city both representative and unusual, 
       and his characters are simultaneously familiar and 
       strange. Following a kind of magical-realist logic, his 
       stories expose the grit and burden of stalled lives, the 
       universal desire for intimacy, and a wistful realization 
       of the off-kilter and even perverse nature of love"--Book 
       flap.
