Ikstena, Nora. 2015/2018. Soviet Milk. Peirene.
A short, beautiful novel about an ugly time, and about the sorts of people who found life under the Soviet regime most difficult.
The book is an English translation of a Latvian best-seller. I purchased it at the delightful English bookstore in Talinn, the capital of neighboring Estonia, when I was there to give a talk at their Central Bank last December.
Recommended.
