Description
Nataliya Kim “My Homeland, Avtozavod” is a very funny and brave book about the everyday life of residents of the Avtozavod district.
“People have to be very courageous—courageous describers of life—putting all these stories onto paper… She developed her own unique style: calm-sharp, wildly natural, cynically-romantic… It’s like she plucks the keen moments of existence from sticky clay of indistinguishable everyday life— a mosaic always striking, always knocks you off your feet, smashing with the force of life as it comes together into a big picture.” (Dina Rubina)
What else can be added? Nataliya Kim is an editor and journalist, has three children, and has been living for more than forty years in the same place—on Avtozavod. Which, however, no longer exists… But there is a book about it—in Dina Rubina’s assessment, “bright, powerful, and relentlessly sad.”
The book was a nominee for the National Bestseller literary award.
