From the master of psychological suspense and the author of "The Adversary" comes 'a work of infinite sorrow, infernal jealousy, and violent passion' (Le Monde). Set in Paris and Kotelnich, a small post-Soviet town, "My Life as a Russian Novel" traces Carrere's pursuit of two obsessions - the disappearance of his Russian grandfather and his erotic fascination with a woman he loves but cannot keep from destroying. In prose that is elegant and passionate, Carrere weaves the strands of his story into a travelogue of a journey inward. Road trip, confession, and erotic tour de force - this fearless reckoning illuminates the schemes we devise to evade ourselves and the inevitable payment they exact.
