Translated from the Russian by Andrew Bromfield, a novel, first published in Russia in 1992, about a Soviet cosmonaut who discovers that his mission to the moon develops unexpectedly and ends bizarrely. From the author of the collection THE BLUE LANTERN.

Industry Reviews

Our hero - named Omon after the Interior Ministry riot police, and calling himself Ra after the Egyptian sun god - introduces himself with a deceptively light and nostalgic narrative as he recalls his boyhood dreams of being an cosmonaut, his love of the clear blue sky. As the tale unfolds, however, his life within the Soviet space programme becomes less and less as he imagined, the programme itself less and less as it seems. Surreal, ironic and extremely fast-paced. (Kirkus UK)
