One More Year
‘This auspicious debut by Ukrainian-born Krasikov includes some widely praised stories that previously appeared in The New Yorker magazine. Krasikov’s eight tales of immigration and cultural adjustment reveal a fine eye for the significant details of daily life, conveyed in unadorned but powerful prose.’

The protagonists of Sana Krasikov’s indelible stories are mostly women – some of them are new to America; some still live in the former Soviet Union, in Georgia or Russia; and some have returned to Russia to find a country they barely recognize and people they no longer understand. Mothers leave children behind; children abandon their parents. Almost all of them look to love to repair their lives, and when love isn’t really there, they attempt to make do with a paler, lighter imitation of it, with substitutes for love.
