About the book: 1988 / The story was published in the magazine “Foreign Literature” No. 5, 1988 “...Problems of war and peace are beginning to be increasingly studied by modern women's prose. From this point of view, the story presented to the Soviet reader is very revealing. Concern about the fate of human civilization in the nuclear age was also voiced in F. Weldon’s speech at the forum “For a nuclear-free world, for the survival of mankind” in the winter of 1987 in Moscow...” N. Koneva
