The Russian Window
ABOUT
THE BOOK
In this sweet and sour image of both intimate and objective European history at the end of 20th century, the writer offers us an omnibus novel in three parts. Through various narrative techniques, intelligent humour and subtle irony, we read about the main character leaving his bombed out country, dabbling in a variety of odd jobs throughout Europe, composing and decomposing his own personality which becomes clearest in the gap between the thing expected and the thing done.
