But one person is determined to find out more: Lena Romanowicz, a young journalist in search of a good story but also looking for answers to questions of her own. And so she sets out on a journey that will take her from the faded imperial splendour of Vienna to the mountains of Transylvania and the blasted wastelands of the crumbling Soviet Union, following a trail that becomes ever more strange and sinister. Crackling with ideas, this is a dazzlingly entertaining novel about genius, ambition and obsession in the atomic age. Формат: 13 см x 20 см.
