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."
