About this ebook

Praise for Russian Winter

'An elegant, compelling puzzle of family, memory and solitude that brings to life modern day Boston and postwar Russia through a profound love story. Graceful, moving and unexpected' - Matthew Pearl, author of The Dante Club

'A tender and moving debut novel' - Candis Magazine

'An impressive debut: intelligent, moving, and flitting easily between the artistic salons of Soviet Russia and the Boston of today' - Guardian

'A memorable love story cleverly disguised as historical fiction' - Red Magazine

'Part romance, part mystery, this elegant debut captures the danger - and refuge - of love in Stalin's era' - Good Housekeeping
