More Description

The life of the Russian woman Zinulya and her colleges and partners are depicted. The events are going on at the end of the XX century in Russia and the USA. Zinulya's story begins with her defending her honor in an assault by three drunken rapists. Her struggle for survival tosses her from international prostitution and promiscuous diva of the Institute to a doctor of geophysics. Among her partners was a successful but incompetent doctor of sciences Seva Bragin, and fallen into official disgrace Professor Yuri Chudov, and American climatologist, who helped her to emigrate to the USA. There she tirelessly pursues success by any means. There are matchless chapters ("The Gorbachev Loop" and "The Last Soviet New Year's Eve Night") completely woven from the jokes and folklore of the 1980s. Characters are realized not only through their everyday, sexual, and working relations but also through their scientific, philosophical, political, and historical views. The book will be interesting to anyone, who loves woman's prose and realistic narration with a dramatic plot and a wide spectrum of intellectual relationships; to fans of memoirs; to those for whom nothing new is alien: the real and virtual world, classical literature and poetry, or Internet and sex as a means to professional success.
