It's the mid-2000s. In a drab single-industry town, a quiet struggle for survival rages daily. Here, lies are a means of protection, trust a rare commodity, and hopelessness a closed space from which neither adults nor future graduates of the local school can escape. But there's a fragile circle connecting two points: the daughter of a visiting inspector, Senya, and her classmate, nicknamed Frost.

Frost is an outcast among his peers. By day, he tries to remain invisible; by night, he's a savvy gamer, earning money. He harbors a terrible secret that torments him. Senya balances on the edge of normalcy and outsiderdom. Every day, she faces a dilemma: betray herself again to please her classmates or find the strength to be herself. Her only salvation is texting her sister on ICQ and listening to her favorite songs by Animal Jazz and Splin.

"The Radius of Fragility" is a novel about teenage isolation, systemic cruelty, and that painful point where true intimacy is born and fragility becomes strength.
