Аннотация

Marusya Tatarovich, a young Russian woman, falls unsuccessfully in love with a Jew, Tsekhnovitser. She gets bored with the dull medical student she does marry, is divorced, and has a common-law marriage and son by the pop singer Razudalov. She "marries" Tsekhnovitser so he can emigrate to Israel and she to America. But the Russian community in Queens is poor as well as free, and her Latin lover Rafael is a doubtful provider. In despair she tries to return to the USSR but is told by the Soviet Embassy she must "earn forgiveness." Razudalov shows up briefly on a music tour in New York but fears meeting his son. The disappearance of Marusya's pet parrot, Lolo, is the last straw. When the bird does turn up, Marusya recovers and marries Rafael. Entertaining as well as politically relevant, this novel shows that life is finally what we make it, USSR or USA. Recommended.
