When Alina's brother-in-law defects to the West, she and her husband become persons of interest to the secret services, causing both of their careers to come grinding to a halt. As the strain takes its toll on their marriage, Alina turns to her aunt for help - the wife of a communist leader and a secret practitioner of the old folk ways.

Set in 1970s communist Romania, this novella-in-flash draws upon magic realism to weave a tale of everyday troubles that can't be put down.

"A story to savour, to smile at, to rage against and to weep over." (Zoe Gilbert, author of Folk)

A very vivid depiction of the opaque communism in Romania. Wasn't expecting a twist in the tale but really did help to move the book along. Essential reading for those interested in the social impact of communism on the Romania people - a bit 1984
