Viktor Pelevin is a renowned Russian postmodernist writer. He won the Little Booker Prize and the National Bestseller Award. "Omon Ra" is Pelevin's first novel. We recommend it as a starting point for exploring his work.
Omon Krivomazov dreamed of flying to the moon since childhood. Together with his friend Mitok, he ends up in a secret space school affiliated with the First Department of the Soviet KGB. However, this dream comes at a price. After all, the moon is actually a mechanism that "feeds" on human lives.
"Omon Ra" has been called a space horror story, a satire on the Soviet space program, and a philosophical parable blending Egyptian mythology with Soviet mythology. From the author's perspective, it's simply a story about growing up and beginning to see the world as it really is. And it will eat us—because there's no one else to eat.
The novel won two prestigious awards: Interpresscon and Bronze Snail.
The book is published in a softcover with flaps that can be used as bookmarks. You'll never lose your place. To enhance the tactile experience when interacting with the book, some elements of the cover image are highlighted with a three-dimensional varnish.
