Snegurochka of the Spring Breeze

Plot

Bielka (“Squirrel”), a beautiful young woman in a wheelchair, and her taciturn companion Shchenok (“Puppy”) must hide the truth of their identities as they navigate the fraught political climate and harsh landscape of the Soviet Union of the 1930s on a highly secret and terribly personal mission. Rich with intrigue and history, this erotic political drama weaves famous—and infamous—historical figures into the fabric of Hiroaki Samura’s brilliantly imagined fiction.
