Picnic sul ghiaccio by Andrey Kurkov

e_reading's review against another edition

3.0

I suspect that one needs to know more of Ukraine's political history than I do in order to truly understand anything that is happening in this novel. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it. We share a sense of humor, this novel and I, if not quite a sense of context.
