A slide down the social ladder in a changing city. A life-altering choice that bestows a complicated gift. A transformative encounter in the midst of institutional decline. A toxic friendship in the Machiavellian world of 1930s Soviet politics. In these four striking novels, men negotiate the many questions and quandaries of masculinity, morality and materiality.
