AbstractHistoryArchive Description
“Igor Gelbach’s rich portrayal of the decay and corruption of what was a small corner of the Soviet Union… is a wonderful evocation of place and period, of a picturesque Black Sea resort gone to seed, its life burdened first by the senseless opression from afar under the tyranny of Georgia’s most infamous son, then, as Stalinism decayed, by the corrosive action of Mafia violence.” - Sydney Morning Herald
