In 1954, a year after Stalin's death, Nikolai waits in Moscow for his cousin Iván, released after thirty years in prisons and labor camps. The wait awakens guilt in him and confronts him with the wounds of the Stalinist regime. Grossman makes his last novel an examination of totalitarianism and the human condition.

For readers of historical fiction and Russian literature, interested in the USSR and the aftermath of Stalinism.
Vasily Semyonovich Grossman was a Soviet writer and journalist. Born to a Jewish family in Ukraine, then part of the Russian Empire, Grossman trained as a chemical engineer at Moscow State University, earning the nickname Vasya-khimik because of his diligence as a student. Upon graduation, he took a job in Stalino in the Donets Basin. In the 1930s he changed careers and began writing full-time, publishing a number of short stories and several novels.
