Opis

Patrick deWitt meets Catch 22, when a guileless young boy gets mixed up in Stalin's inner circle. A Soviet Look Who's Back, The Zoo is a cutting satire, told through the refreshing voice of one gutsy boy who will not give up on hope.

Recenzje

The Zoo is exquisite. A biting satire that broke my heart. Nathan Filer
