Publisher's Synopsis
'Snow Germans' is a highly topical metaphysical novel about young people growing up trapped between two of Europe's giants: Germany and Russia. It captures a disappearing world, that of Germans once encouraged to settle in the Russian countryside in the times of Peter the Great, whose identity and traditions have been stricken by the impact of two World Wars. The Snow Germans are three of these Russo-Germans: now repatriated, they find themselves strangers in their own land.
