"The Good Life Elsewhere is equal parts tragedy and comedy. It’s satirical and odd and often unbelievable, but even today thousands of people travel from their homeland, risking death in the hope of where they end up might provide a better life for them and their loved ones, so it’s not totally unbelievable. It just pushes everything to the extreme." https://elenasquareeyes.com//read-the-world-moldova-the-g/

Starred Review for ROUNDABOUT OF DEATH by Syrian author Faysal Khartash about the bombing of Aleppo in Library Journal: "Arresting ... Readers are ushered into a landscape that feels surreal but couldn’t be more horrifically factual ... Heartbreaking in its matter-of-factness, Khartash’s work delivers a clear sense of life amid war in his book’s brief span." https://www.libraryjournal.com/

Sergei Lebedev, author of UNTRACEABLE, tells BBC World Service he feels deep shame over what is happening in Russia today. In an interview broadcast a day after thousands of Russians were detained in demonstrations in over one hundred cities across their country in support of jailed opposition leader Alexei Navalny, Lebedev said his new book aims to focus attention on scientists who use knowledge to assist state-sponsored evil-doers. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3cszj9j (Interview starts at 14:26) Navalny was nearly killed in a nerve agent attack attributed to the Putin regime five months ago. "UNTRACEABLE is a story about poisons of all kindsphysical, moral and political," says the BBC. https://newvesselpress.com/books/untraceable/

UNTRACEABLE by Sergei Lebedev in The New York Times today: "A thriller dipped in poison shares some of le Carré’s fascination with secret worlds and the nature of evil." https://www.nytimes.com//b/sergei-lebedev-untraceable.html https://newvesselpress.com/books/untraceable/

The NY Times profiles Sergei Lebedev, calling his new book UNTRACEABLE "a thriller dipped in poison" with a John le Carré-like "fascination with secret worlds and the nature of evil." Says Lebedev: "It’s about knowledge and power and the dark romance between totalitarianism and science during the 20th century." Translator Antonina W. Bouis likens him to Solzhenitsyn. Sergei has that same kind of moral compass ... UNTRACEABLE is really a moral and philosophical study of what kind of people make poison. Why do they do that? https://www.nytimes.com///sergei-lebedev-untraceable.html
