Reviews
[A] vigorous little bildungsroman whose reappearance is very welcome indeed." -Kirkus Reviews
"Veretitsyn leaps off the page and his passion for Sofya is palpable. Khvoshchinskaya's brief and vivid story is like a sharply composed snapshot. Here is a writer to learn more about." -Publishers Weekly
