The View from Stalin’s Head: Stories

A compelling, darkly comic anthology of short fiction, set in post-Cold War Prague during the 1990s, chronicles the lives and fortunes of a colorful array of characters, both American and European, including a self-appointed rabbi who runs a synagogue for non-Jews, a would-be socialist trying to rouse the oppressed masses, and others who attempt to define the labels they place on themselves and others. A first collection. Original. 25,000 first printing.
