"Politics disappears; it vanishes. What remains constant is……" — Tatyana Tolstaya
"Politics disappears; it vanishes. What remains constant is human life. So I try to develop a perspective in my writing where politics is just one of the pieces of furniture in this furnished world. It is not the purpose. It is not the goal."
