    <![CDATA[  Sasha Goldberg is the ultimate outsider: she’s a chubby, biracial Jewish girl from the Siberian   town of Asbestos 2. Her father takes off for the United States, and leaves Sasha to navigate   adolescence in a bleak apartment bloc with her overbearing mother. Sasha falls in love with an   art school drop-out who lives inside a concrete pipe in the town dump. Following her heart gets   her into trouble at home, so she flees Russia as a mail-order bride and lands in suburban Arizona.   Sasha manages to escape her Red Lobster-loving fiancé and embarks on a misadventure-filled   journey across America in search of her father.   <p>  Anya Ulinich has crafted an unforgettable story of familial fault lines, cross-cultural confusion,   and the beguiling allure of new beginnings. <em>Petropolis</em> is a funny and poignant debut   marking the arrival of a major new voice in fiction.</p>]]>
