Winner of the Man Booker Prize 2007, Anne Enright's fourth novel is both sophisticated and unflinching. The timeless themes of love, death and human weakness are explored in Enright's characteristically subtle, beautiful prose.
Young Stalin is a remarkable adventure story about an exceptional, turbulent young man, born in exoticism, raised in the church, fancying himself a poet, then embracing revolutionary idealism and thereby finding his romantic Messianic mission in life.
