There Once Lived a Mother Who Loved Her Children, Until They Moved Back In: Three Novellas About Family

From the author of the prizewinning memoir about growing up in Stalinist Russia,Â The Girl from the Metropol Hotel, the masterly novellas that established her as one of the greatest living Russian writersâ€”including a new translation of the modern classic The Time Is NightÂ

â€œLove them,Â theyâ€™ll torture you; donâ€™t love them, Âtheyâ€™ll leave you anyway.â€

After her work was suppressed for many years, Ludmilla Petrushevskaya won wide recognition for capturing the experiences of everyday Russians with profound pathos and mordant wit. Among her most famous and controversial works, these three novellasâ€”The Time Is Night,Â Chocolates with Liqueur (inspired by Edgar Allan Poeâ€™s â€œThe Cask of Amontilladoâ€), andÂ Among Friendsâ€”are modern classics that breathe new life into Tolstoyâ€™s famous dictum, â€œAll happy families are alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.â€ Together they confirm the genius of an author with a gift for turning adversity into art.
