Description
A man waits by the lift of a Leningrad apartment block, expecting to be taken away. It's May 1937 and he's been forgotten by those who once knew him. The Big House is his destination, but few who enter it ever return. This is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that explores the relationship between art and power. Julian Barnes's masterful storytelling brings a profound meditation on the human experience to life. Written in a style that is both elegant and unflinching, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the complexities of human nature.
