Everything is Normal offers a lighthearted worm\'s-eye-view of the USSR through the middle-class Soviet childhood of a nerdy boy in the 1970s and \'80s.
This is a tale of friendship, school, and growing up--to read Everything is Normal is to discover the very foreign way of Life behind the Iron Curtain, but also to journey back into a shared past..
Sergey Grechishkin\'s world is strikingly different, largely unknown, and fascinatingly unusual, and yet a world that readers who grew up in the United States or Europe during the same period will partly recognize.
A relatable journey into the world of the late-days Soviet Union, Everything is Normal is both a memoir and a social history--a reflection on the mundane deprivations and existential terrors of day-to-day Life in Leningrad in the decades preceding the collapse of the USSR.
