      About This Book

      Three young Russian orphans, adopted from Saint Petersburg, have blocked all memories of their native city and their native language. Their adoptive father, an older man who is twice the age of their adoptive mother, worked and studied in Cold War Leningrad and in post-Communist Saint Petersburg. All of them must come to terms with the majestic, mystical city and the place it occupies in their lives and memories. Time is of the essence; the father's memories dim. Reviews of "The Little Russians," an earlier edition of this book, have been uniformly positive.
