Dmitrij Kapitelman reads "Russian Specialties"

A book that only Dmitrij Kapitelman can write: tragic, tender, and funny all at once. A family from Kyiv sells Russian specialties in Leipzig. Vodka, pelmeni, SIM cards, sailor shirts – and a somehow Eastern European sense of belonging. However, the latter has been lost since the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The mother stands by Putin's side. And her son, who loves no language more than Russian, no one more than his mother, but also no city more than Kyiv, is desperate. It is not wise of him to return to Ukraine in the middle of a war. But what is he supposed to do when there is no other way to bring Mama back from fascism and the insane Russian television lies?
