Behind the Curtains is a cycle of twenty-seven autobiographical stories tracing a boy's journey from the very early years of his life to the threshold of adulthood. Set in Siberia in the 1950s and 1960s, the book invites readers to see the world through a child's eyes, in his own words. Each episode captures a vivid moment that shaped his character.
A child perceives the world without cynicism and with an unguarded belief in kindness and fairness. As time passes, this changes, and what remains are recollections of a lost paradise-gone forever yet always remaining with us.
Behind the Curtains is a meditation on the enduring spirit of childhood and a celebration of life.
