 To the Hermitage Malcolm Bradbury LITERATURE • 2002 • PAPER • 510 PAGES • COMING IN
Bradbury's last novel -- a spirited, complex tale involving French philosopher Diderot, Catherine the Great, an English professor, 18th-century notions and contemporary politics. Bradbury alternates chapters set during the reign of Catherine the Great and 1990s St. Petersburg. It's a novel of ideas -- and an excellent portrait of Russia.
