Good Citizens Need Not Fear

A cast of unforgettable characters populate Maria Reva's ingeniously entwined tales that span the chaotic years leading up to and immediately following the fall of the Soviet Union in 1989. This brilliant and bitingly funny novel-in-stories, set in and around a single crumbling apartment building in Soviet-era Ukraine, heralds the arrival of a major new talent. "Bright, funny, satirical and relevant". Margaret Atwood
