Started this book last night and have already decided to recommend it.
The characters are well developed, the settings painstakingly described, you can practically smell the place and its denizens. It feels real, painfully real. It is certainly "ahead of its time" and treats its subject, prostitution, without glitz and glory and without a lot of moral lecturing.
I wonder why we hear so little of Kuprin?
