She flits from man to man, fascinated by the brave new world supposedly taking shape around her, on a quest for the better life.This anarchic satire is accompanied by related works – short stories, an essay and a screenplay – and through Robert Chandler’s acclaimed new translations Platonov’s extraordinary prose and original vision can at last be experienced in full.
