       "Brilliant." -MICHELLE TEA   An arresting memoir equal 
       parts refugee-coming-of-age story, feminist manifesto, and
       meditation on motherhood, displacement, gender politics, 
       and art that follows award-winning writer Sophia 
       Shalmiyev's flight from the Soviet Union, where she was 
       forced to abandon her estranged mother, and her subsequent
       quest to find her. Russian sentences begin backward, 
       Sophia Shalmiyev tells us on the first page of her 
       striking lyrical memoir. To understand the end of her 
       story, we must go back to the beginning.   Born to a 
       Russian mother and an Azerbaijani father, Shalmiyev was 
       raised in the stark oppressiveness of 1980s Leningrad (now
       St. Petersburg), where anti-Semitism and an imbalance of 
       power were omnipresent in her home. At just eleven years 
       old, Shalmiyev's father stole her away to America, forever
       abandoning her estranged alcoholic mother, Elena. 
       Motherless on a tumultuous voyage to the states, terrified
       in a strange new land, Shalmiyev depicts in urgent, poetic
       vignettes her emotional journeys through an uncharted 
       world as an immigrant, artist, and, eventually, as a 
       mother of two. As an adult, Shalmiyev voyages back to 
       Russia to search endlessly for the mother she never knew-
       in her pursuit, we witness an arresting, impassioned 
       meditation on art-making, gender politics, displacement, 
       and most potently, motherhood.
