For a swap.

From the Back Cover:
"This superb anthology provides a unique opportunity for the West to hear Russia's women speak for and about themselves. From Tatiana Tolstaia, the brightest literary star of the decade, comes the story "Peters," which first altered the world to hear her talent. "A Business Trip Home," by the geologist Anna Mass, contains the line that gave this collection its title, and speaks of the difficulty faced by contemporary women everywhere: hot to balance all aspects of their lives, particularly the professional and the domestic. Evoking the universality of women's experiences but vividly portraying Russian day-to-day existence, this extraordinary anthology allows distant voices to reach us and touch our minds and hearts."

I just received this book today. I am going to put this in my mom's permanent collection. She is a Women's Studies major. Thank you for sharing. This should help her in her studies.
