It's a nice, relaxing read with beautiful language and descriptions of the Russian folkways. The Russian-Afghanistan war is mentioned as a gross afterthought, but not too heavily so as to distract the reader from the main story about a Russian girl coming of age and losing her English expatriate father in Egypt. Even the hardships of the Russian poor and the father's imprisonment are crafted so as to present a glimpse of present social situations without being overdone. All in all, it's a lovely tale with strong characters that give the reader a taste of Eastern life, its pains and joys.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68024982667552,"sku":"NEW144618062X","price":19.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51_3Q-TqwXL.jpg?v=1793151595","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/dancing-spoons-and-khachapuri-a-russian-tale-144618062x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
