About this title: Jacques, a fighter pilot, and Alexandra, a nurse, meet in Stalingrad in 1942. They fall passionately in love, have an affair, and part. Jacques is killed, but Alexandra is pregnant, and her son is the novel's narrator, telling the story of his father's life--and finding himself compelled to seek out the wreckage of the plane Jacques was flying when he died. This melancholy novel is the final installment in Makine's Russian trilogy, after DREAMS OF MY RUSSIAN SUMMERS and REQUIEM FOR A LOST EMPIRE.
