Description
In a near-future America teetering on the brink of totalitarianism, ten-year-old Vera Bradford-Shmulkin navigates a world where democracy is a fading memory. As voting rights erode and societal structures shift, Vera grapples with the complexities of family, school, and the mystery of her own origins. With her AI chess computer as her most trusted confidant, she observes the subtle and profound impacts of a declining democracy on those around her. Gary Shteyngart masterfully blends buoyant satire with poignant tenderness, creating a deeply resonant family drama that feels unsettlingly familiar.
