SUMMARY:Hybrid Contemporary Russian Literature Book Group
DESCRIPTION:New members are always welcome. You can join in person or via Zoom. \nThis month’s book is It’s the End of the World\, My Love by Alla Gorbunova. \nOtherworldly forces\, dark phantasmagoria\, the horrors of underground life\, adolescence and rebellion\, myth and fairy tale all swirl together in Alla Gorbunova’s audacious and spectacular novel. \nChildren\, students\, beggars\, young poets: Alla Gorbunova’s heroes and heroines live their lives intensely\, experiencing the longing\, joy\, anticipation\, and heartbreak of youth in 1990s Saint Petersburg. But Gorbunova’s interconnected episodes don’t limit themselves to the realm of the everyday\, as they move from harsh\, material reality to delirious dark fantasies. Characters escape\, decline\, self-destruct\, and transform. In vivid prose she conjures a fragile and haunted society\, and renders it with frank and uncompromising tenderness. A stunning work of fiction\, It’s The End of the World\, My Love is a compassionate\, terrifying\, and rewarding book from an undeniable literary voice. \nPlease contact a.farwell@iconmuseum.org if you would like to join. \n
