An intriguing, fabulously bizarre debut collection of short stories by prizewinning German writer Ingo Schulze, author of Simple Stories.These thirtythree macabre, often comical short pieces revolve around moments of odd blissmoments seized by characters who have found ways to conquer the bleakness of everyday life in the chaotic world of postcommunist Russia.Peopled by Mafia gunmen, desperate young prostitutes, bewildered foreign businessmen, and even a trio of hungry devils, the stories are by turns tragic and bleakly funny. From a sly retelling of the legend of St. Nicholas featuring a rich American named Nick, to a lavish gourmet feast in which the young female cook ends up as the main dish, these stories are above all playful and even surrealand many of them are masterful tributes to Russian writers from Gogol to Nabokov.Translated by John E. Woods.
