Pinguino Serie

Tuffatevi in un paesaggio post-sovietico dove crime, commedia nera e satira politica pungente si scontrano. Questa serie segue individui comuni che navigano in un mondo caotico, pieno di violenza, corruzione e circostanze bizzarre. Aspettatevi colpi di scena inaspettati e arguzia tagliente, spesso con un improbabile compagno animale che si rivela sorprendentemente cruciale. È un mix unico di assurdo e profondamente umano, ambientato sullo sfondo di sconvolgimenti sociali.

He longs to see his work published, yet the subjects of his obituaries continue to cling to life. But when he opens the newspaper to see his work in print for the first time, his pride swiftly turns to terror. He and Misha have been drawn into a trap from which there appears to be no escape.

    'Rich, authentic and entertaining' New Statesman Discover the darkly funny follow-up to cult classic Death and the Penguin Viktor - last seen in Death and the Penguin fleeing Mafia vengeance on an Antarctica-bound flight booked for Penguin Misha - seizes a heaven-sent opportunity to return to Kiev with a new identity. Clear now as to the enormity of abandoning Misha, then convalescent from a heart-transplant, Viktor determines to make amends. Viktor falls in with a Mafia boss who engages him to help in his election campaign, then introduces him to men who might further his search for Misha, said to be in a private zoo in Chechnya. What ensues is for Viktor both a quest and an odyssey of atonement, and, for the reader, an experience as rich, topical and illuminating as Death and the Penguin.
