A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

A novel about growing up in a small provincial Russian town on the Black Sea before and partly during World War II. The ambience is of a multi-ethnic (in the Russian provincial sense), close-knit working-class community, seen through the eyes of a bright, bookish child.
