Review: A very well written exploration of life during the fall of the Soviet Union.

This was a VERY well written book. I've always been curious about what life was like among youth growing up while the Soviet Union was collapsing. This book creates a vivid exploration of living in Moscow while communist hardliners escalated tension against pro-democracy forces shortly before Russia's total transition. However, the story more focuses on the protagonist, Marina, and her experiences with life and love, as the events happen around her. Highly recommended!
