The Russian Debutante's Handbook by Gary Shteyngart
The Russian Debutante's Handbook by Gary ShteyngartI don't know if anyone else has had the chance to read it, but I loved it. You get the chance to look at situations that can only occur in American from a Russian immigrant's perspectives. It's interesting and witty in a modern style of writing. Gary Shteyngart's use of the English language reminds me a lot of Vladimir Nabokov. They can play with words and phrases in an interesting way because they look at it through a foreigner's eyes. If you're looking for something entertaining and moral-less, but at the same time smart, pick up The Russian Debutante's Handbook.

I saw this book a few weeks ago at Cost Co and picked it up, but I ended up putting it back because I am trying to cut back on my extraneous book spending. Maybe I'll buy it for the plane ride to New Orleans!

Look, if this is weird for you, being tutored? I don't mind helping you a little longer. You could have sex with me if you really want to help...I guess that's a "no"? Who is onlineUsers browsing this forum: No registered users and 1 guest |
