Shortlisted for the 2021 International Booker Prize Winner of the 2018 Bolshaya Kniga Award Winner of the 2019 NOS Literature…
PrizeAn exciting contemporary Russian writer explores terra incognita: the still-living margins of history.With the death of her aunt, the narrator is left to sift through an apartment full of faded photographs, old postcards, letters, diaries, and heaps of souvenirs: a withered repository of a century of life in Russia. Carefully reassembled with calm, steady hands, these shards tell the story of how a seemingly ordinary Jewish family somehow managed to survive the myriad persecutions and repressions of the last century.In dialogue with writers like Roland Barthes, W. G. Sebald, Susan Sontag, and Osip Mandelstam, In Memory of Memory is imbued with rare intellectual curiosity and a wonderfully soft-spoken, poetic voice. Dipping into various forms—essay, fiction, memoir, travelogue, and historical documents—Stepanova assembles a vast panorama of ideas and personalities, offering an entirely new and bold exploration of cultural and personal memory.Praise for In Memory of Memory:"A luminous, rigorous, and mesmerizing interrogation of the relationship between personal history, family history, and capital-H History. I couldn't put it down; it felt sort of like watching a hypnotic YouTube unboxing-video of the gift-and-burden that is the twentieth century. In Memory of Memory has that trick of feeling both completely original and already classic, and I confidently expect this translation to bring Maria Stepanova a rabid American fan base on the order of the one she already enjoys in Russia." —Elif Batuman, author of The Idiot, finalist for the Pulizter Prize for Fiction"There is simply no book in contemporary Russian literature like In Memory of Memory. A microcosm all its own, it is an inimitable journey through a family history which, as the reader quickly realizes, becomes a much larger quest than yet another captivating family narrative. Why? Because it asks us if history can be examined at all, yes, but does so with incredible lyricism and fearlessness. Because Stepanova teaches us to find beauty where no one else sees it. Because Stepanova teaches us to show tenderness towards the tiny, awkward, missed details of our beautiful private lives. Because she shows us that in the end our hidden strangeness is what makes us human. This, I think, is what makes her a truly major European writer. I am especially grateful to Sasha Dugdale for her precise and flawless translation which makes this book such a joy to read in English. This is a voice to live with." —Ilya Kaminsky, author of Deaf Republic"Dazzling erudition and deep empathy come together in Maria Stepanova's profound engagement with the power and potential of memory, the mother of all muses. An exploration of the vast field between reminiscence and remembrance, In Memory of Memory is a poetic appraisal of the ways the stories of others are the fabric of our history." —Esther Kinsky, author of Grove"A book to plunge into. 'Everyone else's ancestors had taken part in history' writes Stepanova; building itself via accumulation, these chapters become an important testimony to the cultural and political lives of the people held beneath the surface of the tides of history" —Andrew McMillan, author of Playtime

스물다섯 살이 될 때까지 자신이 게이라는 걸 모를 수도 있을까? 고등학교를 중퇴하고, 겨우 난독증을 극복한 빌리 밸류. 건설회사 노동자로 일하는…
빌리의 삶은 부모님을 돌보고, 누이들을 대학에 보내고, 어린이 야구팀 코치를 하는 게 전부다. 이전 여자친구들과 세 번이나 약혼까지 갔지만, 결국 결혼에는 성공하지 못한 빌리는 슬슬 연애에도 회의가 든다. 이런 빌리에게도 목표가 있다면, 그건 바로 건설 도급업자 면허를 따는 것. 하지만 면허를 따기 위해서는 자격시험을 봐야하는데, 빌리는 시험에 대한 심각한 공포증이 있는데... 결국 차일피일 시험을 미루고, 빌리의 꿈도 그렇게 현실과 점점 멀어져 간다. 누이의 결혼을 앞두고, 빌리는 결혼식에 앞서 신랑신부와 가족들의 의상을 책임진 유명 스타일리스트 체이스 필립스, 일명 샤즈를 만난다. 한 눈에 봐도 게이임이 분명한 샤즈. 샤즈에게 빌리는 정직하고, 용감하고, 건장하기까지 한 완벽한 이상형이지만, 빌리가 스트레이트라는 사실에 마음을 접을 수밖에 없다. 설사 빌리가 게이라고 하더라도, 그처럼 마초 같은 남자가 샤즈 같은 화려하고 노골적인 게이를 좋아할 리는 없으리라 믿어 의심치 않는데... 공통점이라곤 눈 씻고 찾아봐도 없는 샤즈와 빌리. 하지만 둘 사이에 흐르는 이 묘한 전류는 뭘까?
