From political fictionalist Alisa Ganieva: a neo-noir portrait of a legal system in which everything is broken and no one is innocent.Offended Sensibilitieschronicles a series of sudden deaths that occur among officials of a provincial Russian town. The events follow a notorious blasphemy law banning forms of expression that offend the sensibilities of religious believers a law passed after Pussy Riots infamous 2013 church-side protest that resulted in their arrest.With this novel, Ganieva moves beyond the Dagestani setting of her previous award-winning books, published in English by Deep Vellum:The Mountain and the WallandBride and Groom. InOffended Sensibilities, Ganieva seeks to address nationalism, Orthodox religiosity, sexuality, and political corruption. Suffused with a light touch and at times rollicking sense of humor, this timely, entertaining and thought-provoking novel can be read as an allegory for the current political, social, religious, and cultural climate in Russia today.
