Flame Out at Sea

Om Flame Out at Sea

The protagonist of A Flame Out at Sea heads to the stores of the northern lakes and the White Sea in search of its present, which unexpectedly proves to be inseparable from its recent past. Against the backdrop of the powerful northern elements, the drama of a single individual in the here and now begins to seem tiny and insignificant but the tragedy of the nation irredeemably large. "The novel is a confession, a travelogue and a doorway into a great historical era." A Flame Out at Sea is about going beyond the boundaries of the big city, about overcoming the fetters of one's private and family past, leaving aside one's resentment, squashing one's pride, unclenching one's fists and turning one's life around. It is about a journey to the origins of speech, personality, courage and love made by a modern man in the harsh, sacred, nourishing and draining circumstances of the Russian North. (Valeria Pustovaya, Literary critic) Translated from the Russian by Christopher Culver Published with support of the Russian Booker Foundation Sponsored by GLOBEXBANK Publishers Maxim Hodak & Max Mendor
