A collection of essays by a Russian artist living in New York. In Russian and English. StoSvet Press, New York. "Slava Polishchuk's essays outline his time in the army, his life as an artist in Russia and New York, his family history, wonderful Jewish cuisine in the Soviet Union, and other topics: everyday, funny, happy and tragic. Whether he's in the New York subway or in distant spaces from his childhood, his descriptions of places and faces are vividly visual. This is a book for everyone interested in art, history and memory." Sibelan Forrester
