<b>Otherworldly forces, dark phantasmagoria, the horrors of underground life, adolescence and rebellion, myth and fairy tale all swirl in Alla Gorbunova''s audacious and spectacular novel.</b><p>Children, students, beggars, young poets: Alla Gorbunova''s heroes and heroines live their lives intensely, experiencing the longing, joy, anticipation, and heartbreak of youth in 1990s Saint Petersburg. <span>But Gorbunova''s interconnected episodes don''t limit themselves to the realm of the everyday, as they move from harsh, material realities to delirious dark fantasies. Characters escape, decline, self-destruct, and transform. In vivid prose she conjures a fragile and haunted society, and renders it with frank and uncompromising tenderness. A stunning work of fiction, <i>It''s the End of the World, My Love</i> is a compassionate, terrifying, and rewarding book from an undeniable literary voice. </span></p>
