How does private life relate to the logic of national or world history? This question has been posed more than once by the Russian classics - and the first among them, of course, is Leo Tolstoy. Denis Sobolev's new novel continues and develops this tradition. The author does not just tell about the life of one family in different historical circumstances from the era of stagnation to the present day, but weaves the fates of the characters into the fabric of a great history. Arina and Mitya are brother and sister growing up in the 1980s and 1990s. From childhood in an intellectual environment, the Leningrad rock underground and traveling around the country to emigration, their life paths are archetypal and yet unique. The plot geography is as impressive in its scope as the length of the novel in time: the action takes place in Leningrad and Moscow, in the Russian North and Siberia, in Israel and Lebanon, Europe and Latin America. With this artistic scale and appeal to religious and philosophical categories, Denis Sobolev pays tribute to the traditions of the great Russian novel, while preserving its main virtue - a sincere interest in man. The author's apt and time-sensitive language helps to expand genre boundaries and breathe new life into a familiar conceptual framework.
