Digital Valley

Sometimes fate presents an ambiguous choice. Convenient California or native Moscow? Loyalty to duty or loyalty to yourself? And what if it’s this: your beloved man—or a child? After moving with her husband to Mecca of geeks and freaks—the Silicon Valley, Iryna, an intelligent woman from Moscow—rethinks her life completely. A new encounter, a fresh start—she’s been given a unique chance to rewrite everything from a blank page. This poignant, almost autobiographical story will carry you to another continent, where not everything turns out simple and clear. From the author: “Few people write about life outside Russia—how it really is and what it can become. Adaptation problems, cultural differences, mixed marriages—these phenomena have already become familiar, which makes them no less difficult and interesting. Finding your calling, the meaning of your own life in a vast interconnected world is a challenge not only for the novel’s heroine, but for an entire generation.”
