Although Minsk and Belarus are never mentioned, they are clearly the author's inspiration for the novel's setting. The plot focuses on a doomed romance between a young man whose former lover has disappeared and a young woman whose other lover is the minister of state security. The novel evokes classic dissident literature while artfully depicting the post-Soviet, globalized world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Northwestern University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780810128767\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/21\/2013 pg. 41\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2013 pg. 34\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/09\/2013 pg. 22\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Victor Martinovich","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43067643855029,"sku":"9780810128767","price":18.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_3cd53e85-0cb6-46eb-86c3-d4329dde858f.jpg?v=1690862079","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/paranoia-9780810128767","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
