Описание
In this semi-autobiographical debut novel, Mark Budman chronicles the life of Alex, a boy born in Siberia in 1950. Short chapters - sometimes hilarious, sometimes sobering - chronicle Alex's life year by year as he matures, starts a family, gets a chance to leave the Soviet Union, and then goes on to discover the rhythms, disappointments, and small pleasures of suburban life in upstate New York. ''This blazingly fast and funny 'semi-autobiographical' novel follows a Russian man's comically earnest pursuit of the American dream.'' Publishers Weekly.
