Soft cover. Zustand: As New. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance Reader's Edition in paperback. Pristine, clean & tight copy, unread & slipcased in paperboard faux mixtape cover, o/w unjacketed & in AS NEW condition. "Beginning in the tunnels beneath Leningrad and ending at the edge of the solar system, THE TSAR OF LOVE AND TECHNO stretches across a century, a continent, and a striking cast of characters tied together by an obscure 19th-century Russian painting. In the 1930s, a failed portrait artist is tasked by Soviet censors to erase political dissidents from official images and artworks---beginning with his disgraced brother. When an antique painting of a dacha set in a pastoral landscape crosses his desk, he subversively begins to draw his brother into every picture he censors. The decision echoes down the decades, threading together the stories of a legendary ballerina and her granddaughter, a blind restoration artist, a retired gangster, a widower who last saw his wife in that very dacha, and a soldier imprisoned in its well with a mixtape that may hold a final message from his family. Alternately tragic and comic, and richly profound throughout, THE TSAR OF LOVE AND TECHNO is a masterly tour de force." Sharp corners & crisp edges, square & tight binding w/no creases in spine. Quite presentable & collectible.

"Beginning in the tunnels beneath Leningrad and ending at the edge of the solar system, THE TSAR OF LOVE AND TECHNO stretches across a century, a continent, and a striking cast of characters tied together by an obscure 19th-century Russian painting. [] In the 1930s, a failed portrait artist is tasked by Soviet censors to erase political dissidents from official images and artworks--beginning with his disgraced brother. When an antique painting of a dacha set in a pastoral landscape crosses his desk, he subversively begins to draw his brother into every picture he censors.

[] Alternately tragic and comic, and richly profound throughout, THE TSAR OF LOVE AND TECHNO is a masterly tour de force." [jacket copy] "Remarkable. . . Marra is a gifted writer with the energy and the ambition to explore the lives of characters whose experiences and whose psyches might seem, until we read his work, so distant from our own. Reading his work is like watching the restoration--the reappearance, on the page--of those whom history has erased."--Francine Prose, Washington Post. "Extraordinary. . . Each story is a gem in itself. But the book is greater than its parts, an almost unbearably moving exploration of the importance of love, the pull of family, the uses and misuses of history, and the need to reclaim the past by understanding who you really are and what really happened. . . He starts this miracle of a book by showing us how a system can erase the past, the truth, even its citizens. He ends by demonstrating, through his courageous, flawed, deeply human characters, how individual people can restore the things that have been taken away. And if you've been worrying that you've lost your faith in the emotionally transformative power of fiction--Mr. Marra will restore that, too."--Sarah Lyall, The New York Times. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp deckle edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a bright-as-new jacket. Quite presentable.
