Items related to My affair with Stalin
Synopsis
Philip Roth meets Evelyn Waugh in a blackly comic portrayal of prep-school adolescence. Motefiore creates a young anti-hero as hilarious as Just William, as monstrous as Stalin himself, whose rite of passage shows what happens when a game of power grows into a dangerous obsession.
