Reviews
"At heart intellectual, literary and theological.... Plante is serious, intelligent and convincing, and he is always worth reading." --Jonathan Yardley,The Washington Post "...reads like an allegory, a fairy tale, and a true story, all in one--an eerie little powerhouse of a novel. I think that this book may help bring David Plante the serious attention he deserves as a novelist." --Philip Roth "A powerful, courageous, curiously invigorating work, reffirming our need to look at the last, worst things, and then to begin again, beyond them." --Margaret Drabble "David Plante has established himself as one of the most necessary and resonant novelists of his generation." -Peter Straub "This book will chill your soul." -Richard Fuller,The Philadelphia Enquirer

Synopsis
An evocation of the prostitution underworld of modern-day Russia follows Joe, a young American who becomes caught up in the erotic and emotional turmoil surrounding Zoya and Gerald, who run a white slavery ring., On the eve of the Soviet Union's imminent collapse, Joe, an idealistic young American, ventures to Leningrad and Moscow in search of an unlikely salvation. Instead, he is confronted with a barren and amoral world. There he crosses paths with Gerald, a disaffected expatriate American determined to capitalize on the suffering of a sorrowful nation, and Zoya, a tragic Russian woman intent on finding her own redemption. Lured into their nefarious world, Joe becomes ensnared in a conflict of wills that profoundly changes his existence.

Amazing seller!
