Description
The activities of this movement, as well as the extent of the Soviet role in the war's origins, have never entered the mainstream perception of the history of the war, nor have they been discussed in the context of a novel. Some of the information comes from declassified archives, and thus has been entirely absent from history for decades.
The historical theme is mirrored by an abstract, metaphysical plot-theme that leads to conflicts and emotional entanglements. The style in Idée Vixe is reminiscent of many classical precedents, ranging from the wild psychology of Gogol to the eccentric metafiction of Nabokov. The attention to aesthetic detail resembles that of Flaubert and the work abounds in direct philosophic and literary references.
