FROM THE PUBLISHER - The greatest collection by one of the great Russian writers is now back in print. First published in Europe in the 1930s and '40s, these searing, evocative stories by the late EmigrE writer Nina Berberova (1901-1993) are portraits of the lives of Russian exiles in Paris on the eve of World War II. The protagonists range from housekeepers and waiters to shabby-genteel aristocrats and intellectuals - but all are united in a haunting displacement from their pasts, and all share a troubling uncertainty about the future. inventory #7928 ISBN: 0679402810.
