With icons like Chubby Checker and Yuri Gagarin, the Moscow that Svyatoslav Semyonovich inhabits at the onset of the Chilly War brims with the flashy aesthetic textures of capitalism. A Jewish teen on the search for black-market tight slacks and rock data, Svyatoslav somehow does not develop his undying love for Lyuba into a happy stopping. He detects work in a mental institution, works off to Kiev with one of the patients, marries a few times, has a child, becomes a professor, and halfheartedly works disturbance for the KGB. Always taking great pleasure in the activities of others, including his patients and buffs, Svyatoslav flounders through his own life but never loses perception of Lyuba, his biblical Rachel, his great love. A professor and close audience of both Russian and American books, Svyatoslav tries to interpret his eccentric life as though it were a text to be read, only to learn that life happens off of the page.
