Appreciate the info

Funny you should mention it. A friend and I just stumbled across this at Borders yesterday(after a lengthy lunch discussion re Russian matters far and wide: Tolstoy's "Confession;" death of Pushkin and Lermontov by duel; Chekhov's "The Duel" and on. A most delightful way to spend a Friday afternoon), and we weren't quite sure what to make of it.

Yes, it's definitely a tricky title...impossible to summarize. If you enjoy character-driven fiction, though, it's worth checking out!
