Love in the era of change

The new novel by Yuri Polyakova “Love in the era of change” justifies his name. This is a subtle story about the complex relationship of the protagonist Gene Skoratin, editor of the weekly “Mir and We”, with the three main women of his life. And at the same time, this is the first attempt in Russian literature to understand the era of perestroika, rigidly disperse myths, understand its secret springs, light and dark sides. However, the author writes about modern Russia in severe traditions of critical realism. As always, the reader awaits a sharp plot, bright characters, a stinging satire, sharp words, unexpected comparisons, bold erotic metaphors ... In a word, all that real connoisseurs of literature so love Yuri Polyakov’s prose
